8/9 Take home message -> Increased representation of high-risk phenotypes associated with inflammation and catabolism in Black and Asian patients could be driven by baseline differences in health status, reflecting longstanding health inequalities.

Shocking differences. Residents of Barking and Dagenham have the same life expectancy as they did 10 years ago, compared to boroughs like Kensington and Chelsea where improvements have continued until much more recently. data.london.gov.uk/dataset/l…

Replying to @trustforlondon
2 – Life expectancy by London borough The latest data on life expectancy shows large inequalities in how long you can expect to live, depending on which borough you live in. Women in Westminster can expect to live 6 years longer than those in Barking & Dagenham – Men 7 years

I am running for the ESICM NEXT committee along with fellow clinicians and active researchers @carenzmd @LuigiLaVia7 @m_zawadka. I aim to support early career development of Intensivists, improve diversity and representation, and promote the multi-collaborative work of @ESICM.

In the 1st and 2nd waves, local Asian and Black populations experienced between two to four-fold higher rates of hospital admissions expected for their age compared to White populations.

This confirms the need to better understand lived experiences & the structural factors that drive ethnic disparities, through community based participatory research that informs community led-interventions.
