Even as the Delta variant rages through the U.S., many Americans have not received a COVID-19 vaccine. The reasons are complex, but for Black and Latinx communities, a long history of poor access to health care has been a tall barrier. On the first episode of our brand-new season of The Dose podcast, host Shanoor Seervai talks to Rhea Boyd, M.D., a pediatrician and public health advocate, about what it takes to dismantle the historic racism that has long prevented people of color from getting the health care they need. Black and Latinx health care professionals like Dr. Boyd are answering questions about the COVID-19 vaccine online and in person. If we make it a national priority, she says, we can ensure Black and Latinx people get credible information about the vaccines and easy access to them.

Pediatrician Dr. Rhea Boyd, co-developer of THE CONVERSATION, a national campaign created to combat vaccine hesitancy and provide Black communities with information about COVID-19 vaccines, joins the podcast to discuss the program and tell broadcasters how they can help. Dr. Boyd also answers questions about the Johnson and Johnson vaccination pause and forthcoming COVID-19 vaccines for children.

Two topics currently being hotly discussed in the media and in clinical practice are headaches after the COVID vaccine, and the impact that structural racism is having on vaccine uptake. Headache and fever are common symptoms after a vaccination, but there are concerns about the potential link between the AstraZeneca vaccine and blood clots, and these concerns, exacerbated by the recent frenzy of media coverage, may be damaging the general public's faith in the vaccination programme, and impacting uptake. In this week's episode, we discuss how GPs may safely assess for cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CSVT) in a patient presenting with a headache post vaccine, and the difficulty of gauging the scale of the risk of blood clots. We also talk about the controversial Sewell Report, which concluded that institutional racism is no longer a problem in the UK, and how, once we reach a post-COVID world, we need to focus more on wellbeing and work towards a fairer healthcare system for all. Our guests: Heather Angus-Leppan is a consultant neurologist, and epilepsy lead at the Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust, as well as an honorary senior lecturer at UCL and Imperial College London. Whitney Robinson is an associate professor of epidemiology in the Gillings School of Global Public Health at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Kevin Boston-Hill speaks with Dr. Rhea Boyd, a pediatrician and child and community health advocate, and Dr. Cedric Rutland, a Board Certified Pulmonary and Critical Care Physician based in Southern California, to discuss if the best way to reopen schools and places of business is to create a "herd immunity" by getting vaccinated.

In light of the publication of the Independent Medicines and Medical Devices Safety Review (the Cumberlege report) in early July, which assessed the use of vaginal mesh, sodium valproate and Primodos and their associated under-acknowledged complications, this week we discuss trust between patients and doctors, and how that relationship of trust can break down when patients feel that their concerns and their pain are not being recognised and supported. We talk about the influence of racial inequalities on trust and healthcare outcomes, GPs being an advocate for their patients, and we ask what structural changes to the healthcare system need to happen to allow us to spend more time with our patients and build up that trusting relationship with them? Our guests: Karen Praeter works on the admin team of Sling the Mesh, a campaign which raises awareness of the risks of having a vaginal mesh implant, having joined two years after her own mesh implant operation in 2015 which led to painful complications. Rhea Boyd is a paediatrician at the Palo Alto Medical Foundation in California, and she is also a public health advocate and scholar.

Dr. Rhea Boyd has known ever since she was young that she wanted to be a pediatrician. Her grounding motivation? Making the world safer for children, especially Black kids and children who face various social and structural stressors and oppression. In this episode, we learn more about Rhea's journey into and through medicine, including how she carved her own pathway to explore the intersection of racial justice and health equity from the creation of her own college major to her multi-faceted career today.  This episode also highlights Rhea's recent advocacy efforts that challenge medical institutions to go beyond current "diversity and inclusion” paradigms and “underrepresentation” rhetoric to naming the consequences of racial inequity and racism. Rhea advocates that institutions acknowledge and urgently act upon the violent racist exclusion of Black folks from institutions and stark racial health disparities in order to truly achieve equity and justice.
