Sexual and gender minority (SGM) populations may be affected disproportionately by health emergencies such as the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Health professionals must take immediate steps to ensure equitable treatment of SGM populations. These steps are to (1) maintain and increase cultural responsiveness training and preparedness for SGM populations, (2) increase use of sexual orientation and gender identity measures in surveillance, (3) conduct research on the impacts of COVID-19 on SGM populations, and (4) include equity-focused initiatives in disaster preparedness plans. These actions toward equity would begin to allow for our current health system to care more appropriately for SGM populations.
性少数群体(SGM)可能会受到 2019 冠状病毒病(COVID-19)等卫生紧急情况的不成比例影响。卫生专业人员必须立即采取措施,确保公平对待 SGM 人群。这些措施包括:(1)保持和增加针对 SGM 人群的文化响应培训和准备;(2)增加在监测中使用性取向和性别认同措施;(3)开展有关 COVID-19 对 SGM 人群影响的研究;(4)在备灾计划中纳入注重公平的倡议。这些促进公平的行动将开始使我们当前的卫生系统能够更恰当地照顾 SGM 人群。
