COVID-19 & Biological Inequality; a London Data Study ABSTRACT It is now well understood that poorly designed and planned environments heighten the risk of health issues due to systemic deprivations and stressors. Our recent paper investigates how COVID-19 is interacting with these environments and their communities, specifically Black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) communities in the London. As COVID-19 continues to spread through the British population a trend has emerged, poorer ethnic minority communities are the ones being most affected, both in hospitalisations and death rates. This is an audio extraction from a virtual Townhall we hosted where we invited members of the public to ask questions and interact with us.
