This book discusses how centuries-long racism, the hostile environment, and COVID-19 disproportionately impacted Black, Asian, and other minority ethnic people.
Conceived during the outbreak of COVID-19, this book documents key developments and daily briefings held at No 10 Downing Street. It highlights the unequal effects of the virus on different parts of the country, particularly on older men and those living in deprived areas. The book explores the significant impact on BAME patients and staff in the NHS and care sector, discussing the socio-historical reasons for these inequalities.
Collision of Racism, NHS and COVID-19 is of direct relevance to nurses, medics, and all professionals working in the NHS and other care sectors. It is also significant for NHS and care executives, directors, and policymakers. This book should be on the reading list of all health professionals on pre and post-registration training and is essential for those who advocate and promote social justice.
