๐ก ๐ก ๐กEnsuring immunization of structurally disadvantaged populations: Black People and other people of colour
ย
Podcast Learning objectives
ย
For this mini podcast, we delve into how historical and systemic racism creates hurdles not only in understanding vaccine coverage discrepancies in Canada, but also in crafting effective, nuanced responses. We spotlight the distinctive obstacles Black and Asian communities in Canada have faced in accessing vaccines, both amidst the pandemic and prior to it. In the absence of detailed race-specific data for monitoring diseases preventable by vaccines and tracking vaccination rates, it is difficult to adequately cater to marginalized communities who face systemic barriers to healthcare access, including vaccinations. Dr.Anand unpacks this complex issue.
