We hope the work of the panel and these other models will be used as best practice guides to change the economic maps and social injustices that foster these health disparities still, especially for the black and brown racialized populations in this country. The new normal they can create should include better distribution of resources, such as clean water, more primary care providers, telehealth and telecounseling services, to people who need them…wherever they live. ./cache/cord-290523-pqah68j8.txt ./txt/cord-290523-pqah68j8.txt
