Analysis demonstrates implications of residential segregation on disease transmission, suggesting impacts on public health policies.
This work shows why it is important to consider causal linkages between high-level social determinants - like segregation - and more-proximal transmission mechanisms when crafting and evaluating public health policies. While the framework in this analysis is stylized, it lays the groundwork for data-driven explorations of the mechanistic impact of residential segregation on infection inequities.
