As the Illinois Single-Payer Coalition says, “We know that the roots of the [Covid-19] emergency stem from a deeper and much longer-term crisis—that of poverty and inequality, and of a society that has long ignored the needs of 140 million people who are poor or one emergency away from being poor. Our for-profit health care system, with its financial barriers to access, contributes substantially to poverty and inequality.” Expansion of Medicaid in the states and enacting single payer universal health care for all would be a huge step toward achieving healthcare as a human right. — The Editors
