Richmond, VA, May 05, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) Among the upper echelons of academic surgery, Black and Latinx representation has remained flat over the past six years, according to a study published today in JAMA Surgery by researchers at Virginia Commonwealth University Massey Cancer Center and University of Florida Health.
The study tracked trends across more than 15,000 faculty in surgery departments across the U.S. between 2013-2019. Although the data revealed modest diversity gains among early-career faculty during this period, especially for Black and Latina women, the percentage of full professors and department chairs identifying as Black or Latinx continued to hover in the single digits.
Daniel Neal didn t have plans to receive the COVID-19 vaccine that day.
But when an outreach coordinator with Primary Health Care in Des Moines woke him up in his tent that morning, he changed his plans so quickly that he left his wallet, phone and cigarettes behind to go get his jab.
Soon after receiving his shot of the single-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine, Neal, 37, said he felt good aside from waiting to turn into a zombie or not, he joked.
Neal was one of the first Iowans experiencing homelessness to be vaccinated through Primary Health Care s mobile clinic Thursday.
The clinic was part of a new wave of targeted vaccination clinics created in Iowa to address gaps in access or willingness to accept the pandemic-ending vaccines. The vaccines, which were of very limited supply until recently, have become so plentiful in recent weeks that the state has declined some available doses from the federal government and counties have declined some from the state.
