What's New At Health Affairs

Earlier this week, our Health Affairs Today newsletter featured a guest
essay by
Kate
Diaz Vickery and Tyler Winkelman
,
primary care physicians who codirect the Health, Homelessness & Criminal
Justice Lab

at Hennepin Healthcare Research Institute.

Vickery and Winkelman expanded on their June Health Affairs paper,
"COVID-19 Vaccination Of People Experiencing Homelessness And
Incarceration In Minnesota
."  

In this paper, the authors used data from a statewide public
health-health system collaboration to describe trends in COVID-19
vaccination rates by racial and ethnic groups among people experiencing
homelessness or incarceration in Minnesota.

The takeaway from that research: rates of vaccination for people
experiencing homelessness or incarceration in jail remain too low,
especially for COVID-19 boosters.

Elsewhere At Health Affairs

In Health Affairs Forefront, Chelsea Clinton and Katelyn Yoo argue that
COVAX is not sufficient to vaccinate the world

and its failures are the failures of a global health paradigm which
relies on charity rather than solidarity, elevating the concept of
response over building resilience.

And Henry Aaron describes the decision by the Washington State
legislature to delay implementation of WA Cares

as not a confession of failure, but a prudent action to give time to
implement modifications to correct genuine problems in the original
legislation.

In an episode of This Week, Health Affairs' Leslie Erdelack and Vabren
Watts discuss the FTC's probe of pharmacy benefit managers

and how vertical integration and consolidation may affect patients and
health care consumers.

Currently, more than 70 percent of our content is freely available-and
