Abstract: This commentary explores the relationship between health disparities, social distancing, and belonging in the United States pre- and post-Covid 19. The author concludes that post-Covid-19 requires a radical re-visioning of society to address structural inequality that has heightened the vulnerability of some populations to Covid-19, which has, in turn, exacerbated the pre-existing vulnerabilities.
