Coronavirus
The coronavirus pandemic brings into stark relief the risks we face because of our government’s chronic disinvestment in our health and well-being. People go to their jobs sick for fear of losing their paychecks, and those who are sick forgo testing and treatment due to cost - putting all of us at greater risk of contracting the virus.
Unless we act to provide support for our health care system and working families, the coronavirus and any future public health crisis will infect far more people and do far greater damage to families’ finances and the economy than they otherwise would.
