The murder of George Floyd served as a catalyst to activate national outrage for the deaths of the many who preceded him, in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, has brought to light racial health disparities evident in our country and in our communities. While previous President's columns have included a call to action to engage with and improve the health care system, the glaring health inequities associated with COVID-19 and the Black Lives Matter movement implores deeper reflection. The author questions his role in maintaining the status quo, acknowledging health care disparities as a white male physician, and acknowledging his privilege and fragility. Complex emotions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic are also discussed. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2020 APA, all rights reserved).

乔治·弗洛伊德（George Floyd）被谋杀激起了全国性的愤怒，因为在COVID-19大流行期间，他之前的许多人丧生，这暴露了我们国家和我们社区中明显的种族健康差异。尽管前总统的专栏文章呼吁采取行动与卫生保健系统互动，并改善卫生保健体系，但与COVID-19和“黑住事”运动相关的明显健康不平等现象要求人们加深反思。作者质疑他在维持现状，承认白人医生的医疗保健差距以及承认他的特权和脆弱性方面的作用。还讨论了围绕COVID-19大流行的复杂情绪。（PsycInfo数据库记录（c）2020 APA，保留所有权利）。
