Ever wonder why The Alex exists? This is why 👇 "Canadians pride themselves on the fairness of their society and their health care system, yet disturbing inequities persist in both." (Feb 2020) https://t.co/3wirwNtxnM

Huh. This is an actual question... #COVID19ethics 👀 👇
"Should Canadians living in low-income areas have the same chance of avoiding preventable disease or death as those living in affluent ones?" Interesting to go back and re-read this commentary from February 2020 by @drandrewb and @AndreasLaupacis. https:

Excellent article. "The system can no longer overlook the serious disparities that exist...Human insights need to be central in the way health care is designed and delivered."

we can’t pretend to be surprised by the disparities in this pandemic—have known for decades. and our chronic neglect has discriminated against racialized communities and those living in poverty. Canada’s mirage of universality has been awfully expensive:
