The pandemic is not affecting everyone equally.

​

The pandemic has made social inequalities more obvious and intense.

 

People living in care homes, people without housing, people living with food insecurity, migrant workers, and people working at low-paying front-line and factory jobs have been disproportionately at-risk.

 

Anti-Black racism, anti-Indigenous racism, and ableism in medical settings have led to inequalities in care.

​

These inequalities are examples of systemic or system-level violence. These inequalities also make it more difficult for people who living with abuse to access support.
