Résumé : | International research assesses the impact of social and ethno-racial inequalities on the COVID-19 pandemic. Moreover, vaccination campaigns against COVID-19 also highlighted the link between vaccine hesitancy and low-income or low-educated populations. Based on general statistics and empirical data collected through interviews during two researches in 2020, the first one funded by the FRNS entitled Inequalities and COVID-19 (2021-2023) and the second one carried out among invisible and disadvantaged people funded by the City of Brussels, this contribution intends to provide a broader framework of analysis integrating the interdependencies between social inequalities (living space, housing, risky occupations, cultural and social practices, etc.) and health inequalities (comorbidities) regarding the spread of COVID-19. The results also demonstrate how the population-based measures taken by the political authorities accelerate the spread of COVID-19 among the most precarious people. |
