TOPIC: A Human Rights Approach to Inclusion Health
Public Health Scotland has just published a report on behalf of a cross-sector, multiagency group on the need for a human rights based approach to COVID-19 and the planning and recovery of services. The aim is to minimise unintended negative impacts on health for the most marginalised and excluded, preventing further increases in inequality in our communities.
