Anti-Black racism in Canada’s health care impacts people’ health, argue experts
Canada must dismantle anti-Black racism in health care to address its harmful effects on people s health, argue authors of a commentary in
CMAJ (Canadian Medical Association Journal)
Racism has significant negative effects on the physical and mental health of Black people and people of non-dominant racial groups. For example, there have been significantly higher death rates from COVID-19 among Black people in North America and the United Kingdom.
Anti-Black racism also exists in the medical system, with stereotyping and bias by health care providers and the underrepresentation of Black physicians.
