While the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has broad health implications across the globe, being overlooked in response and policy debates is the impact on women's reproductive rights and violence risk. This is especially salient for minoritized women. In this commentary, we describe the potential negative impact of mandates such as shelter-in-place for domestic violence victims, and how public reproductive health policy is being shaped to disadvantage women, especially minoritized women. We argue that now is the time for violence prevention leaders to advocate for bold action. This includes prioritizing the needs of women (especially minoritized women) in medical, social and legal settings using innovative intervention and service engagement (e.g., e-filing for protection orders, virtual advocacy services), urging policy makers to pass legislation to support women, and shining an accountability spotlight on leadership.
虽然新型冠状病毒（COVID-19）在全球范围内对健康有着广泛影响，但在应对措施和政策辩论中被忽视的是其对妇女生殖权利和暴力风险的影响。这对少数族裔女性尤为突出。在这篇评论中，我们描述了诸如对家庭暴力受害者实施就地避难等指令可能产生的负面影响，以及公共生殖健康政策如何被塑造得对女性不利，尤其是少数族裔女性。我们认为，现在是预防暴力的领导者倡导采取大胆行动的时候了。这包括在医疗、社会和法律环境中，通过创新干预和服务参与（例如，电子提交保护令、虚拟倡导服务）来优先考虑女性（尤其是少数族裔女性）的需求，敦促政策制定者通过支持女性的立法，并对领导层进行问责监督。
