ACBS is proud to endorse the Society of Behavioral Medicine's position statement calling for equitable healthcare during the COVID-19 Pandemic.
In Summary:
A pandemic has no borders and should not disproportionately penalize vulnerable segments of the population. Addressing COVID-19 requires us to act swiftly, bridging geographic, social, and economic divisions, while increasing focus on those at greatest risk. We urge research on disparities in COVID-19-related morbidity and mortality outcomes. We also urge policy actions to enable proactive remediation of healthcare disparities.
