African Worlds in Conversation: COVID-19, Africa, and the African Diaspora, held on October 16, 2020, was a discussion with Dr. Marcella Nunez-Smith, Dr. Yvonne Commodore-Mensah, and Dr. Gbenga Ogedegbe. These doctors discussed African-descended communities and the several factors that contribute to health disparities that place black people at a higher risk of dying from Covid-19. They also pondered public health infrastructures, the “global health advantage,” and problematized the question of “developing” countries. They also addressed high-risk factors determined by poverty, crowded living areas, and lack of healthcare access, as well as the global effect of Covid-19 on Africa, exploring why Africa (at the time of the session) seemed to have been less affected than western countries. Additionally, they explored how people of African descent could potentially respond to the vaccine.
