Abstract
The new coronavirus has continued to exacerbate existing racial disparities in the United States. One key area of concern focuses on employment and communities of color – who disproportionately hold many of the service-focused positions considered essential. This Briefing explores structural discrimination and looks at how the CARES Act and HEROES Act are working (or not) to address these issues.
Description
The COVID-19 Law and Policy Briefings, hosted in two series from March 2020 through July 2021, feature US and international public health law experts discussing the biggest legal issues arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. The briefings are produced by the George Consortium, co-sponsored by the Center for Health Policy and Law at Northeastern University School of Law, the Center for Public Health Law Research at Temple University Beasley School of Law, and the APHA Law Section. Visit Public Health Law Watch (http://bit.ly/COVIDLawBriefing) to watch episodes. All past briefings are also archived by The Week in Health Law podcast.
