ABSTRACT
The COVID-19 pandemic brought to light significant health disparities in illness and death due to a person's race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status. Also, those factors cause significant inequities in access to palliative and end-of-life care that remain largely unaddressed. The quality of care people receive once they are given a life-threatening diagnosis or as they approach the end of their life depends upon race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and who they love. Such disparities in treatment are unconscionable and must be addressed. They warrant serious attention from policymakers and clinicians as well as focused efforts to find solutions.
