Abstract:
The pandemic has had devastating impacts on humanity and the global healthcare sector. An analysis into the social determinants of health, in particular racial and ethnic disparities may explain why certain population groups have been disproportionately affected by COVID-19. The objective of this study is to humanize and personify numerical data. Additionally, COVID-19 population data will be stratified via three data visualization tools (i.e., a persona, a journey map, Sankey diagram) to create a Visualized Combined Experience (VCE) Diagram to illustrate the micro, and macro, perspectives of marginalized individuals across the continuum of care.
