Show Notes

In the second wave of COVID-19, just as The Star reported in the first, Toronto Public Health data shows the inequality of the virus and who is impacted most. High positivity rates reveal racialized people and poor people who often working essential but low-paying jobs are more likely to be exposed to the virus and yet often have fewer options and resources. Toronto Star reporters Jennifer Yang and Kate Allen join "This Matters" to discuss how in pandemic times, all is not equal.
