Authors call for urgent inclusion of psychosocial and economic support in #COVID19 response plans—children who have lost a parent or caregiver are at risk of profound adverse effects on their health, safety, and wellbeing.
ALT Together, we must advance equitable vaccine delivery, avoid child institutionalisation, and support families to care for children with deceased parents or caregivers.

This pandemic has hit communities of color particularly hard. Black Americans, Latinos, and Native Americans are 4x as likely to be hospitalized for COVID-19 as others.
@JoeBiden and I are committed to confronting these disparities head-on.

This election is about so much more than @JoeBiden or me. It’s about the soul of America and our willingness to fight for it. We have a lot of work ahead of us. Let’s get started.
