Let's Talk About Vaccine Equity in the Chronic Illness & Disability Communities!

        We know those in our community are disproportionally impacted by COVID-19. In 2020, we were confronted with the ableist rhetoric that the world shouldn't worry about the pandemic because only the "sick and the elderly" will be impacted. Now that the COVID-19 vaccine is available, it isn't shocking to hear many in our community are being left behind...again.

        Vaccine equity is much larger than the chronic illness and disability communities; it negatively impacts other minority groups as well.
