However, the impact of the pandemic and its consequences are felt differently depending on our status as individuals and as members of society. While some try to adapt to working online, homeschooling their children and ordering food via Instacart, others have no choice but to be exposed to the virus while keeping society functioning. Our different social identities and the social groups we belong to determine our inclusion.

According to the New York Times database, at least 213,876 people with the virus have died in the United States.1 However, these alarming numbers give us only half of the picture; a closer look at data by different social identities (such as class, gender, age, race, and medical history) shows that minorities have been disproportionally affected by the pandemic. These minorities in the United States are not having their right to health fulfilled.

“Fortress New Zealand,” which has one of the strictest border rules in the world, has been breached, and with one of the lowest Covid-19 vaccination rates in the OECD, are Kiwis, who have been languishing in a year-long Covid prison, prepared to live with Covid-🇳🇿?
