How Access to Public Health Impacts Economic Health

2020 has taught us how important “essential workers” are to our daily lives. In hospitality they work in hotels, convention centers, airports, food service and public transit sectors among others. These professions are comprised largely of BIPOC and other underrepresented populations. They are the same populations that have been historically overlooked and underserved in our public health system. To help ensure that our hospitality venues remain open and operational, we need a healthy workforce.
