PDA welcome three new inquiries into the unequal impact of COVID-19
The Women and Equalities Committee launched three new inquiries to investigate the unequal impact of the coronavirus. The three areas of inquiry are:
- Coronavirus and BAME people
- Coronavirus, disability and access to services
- Coronavirus and the gendered economic impact
The PDA welcome the inquiries into these areas and recognise the issues faced by our members. These areas are of particular interest to the PDA’s Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Networks. In particular, the Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic Pharmacists’ Network (BAME Network), the Disabled Pharmacists’ Network (Ability Network) and the National Association of Women Pharmacists (NAWP). |
