Opinion: Addressing racial disparities benefits all Texans

By Octavio N. Martinez, Jr. and Rudolph K. Metayer Just under 43,000 Texans have died from COVID-19. That is a staggering figure. Something else that is just as astonishing? According to a study by the Episcopal Health Foundation, racial and ethnic disparities were responsible for an additional 5,000 deaths from COVID-19 as of September 2020, accounting for 30% of all deaths at that time. It is obvious that our state’s ability to stay healthy is harmed by the inequitable distribution of lifesaving health care services among Texans. This unnecessary loss of life costs us in all respects. The toll is not just emotional or psychological but also financial. This same study estimates that health disparities cost Texans $7.7 billion in excess medical spending and lost productivity.

Now is the time for us to strive for healthcare coverage for all Texans. We ask our Texas legislative leaders to work collaboratively on Medicaid expansion. We now have close to 5.5 million uninsured, a frightening amount boosted by recent job losses due to the ongoing pandemic. The number of uninsured has now climbed to approximately 20 percent, the highest rate in the nation.

Stadium supper, dance zones: News from around our 50 states

From USA TODAY Network and wire reports Alabama Tuscaloosa: Students across the three-campus University of Alabama System will return to in-person instruction for the fall semester with no limits on class size in Birmingham, Huntsville or Tuscaloosa to guard against COVID-19, officials said Monday. The system, which has held classes in multiple formats since the pandemic began a year ago, said in a statement that current models show it should be safe to resume traditional teaching after the summer break. Millions more should have been vaccinated against the disease by then. Dr. Selwyn Vickers, the medical dean at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and chair of the system’s pandemic task force, said leaders will continue trying to make decisions based on data and guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the state health agency. “If safety concerns arise, we can adjust our plan; the safety of the 110,000 students, faculty and staff of the UA System re
