The Coronavirus Pandemic and Immigrant Communities: A Crisis

That Demands More of the Social Work Profession(节选)

Abstract: As the coronavirus pandemic has taken over matters of life and death globally, immigrant communities were some of the most deeply impacted. In the United States (U.S.), Latinx immigrants and other minorities have experienced greater economic burden and worse health outcomes, resulting in alarming rates of death from COVID-19. Yet the governmentrsquo;s relief measures to support individuals did not extend to millions of immigrants. This left many immigrants with the cruel choice to either stay home to protect themselves and their loved ones from the virus or go to work to support their families. Disregard for a large segment of the population is further complemented by strict immigration policies, harsher border restrictions, and public health guidelines that failed to account for the realities faced by immigrants. In this brief, we highlight the unequal toll of the COVID-19 pandemic on immigrants and consider social work response. We argue that the pandemic demands more of the social work profession, as the coronavirus crisis exposed more clearly the systemic inequalities toward immigrants and aggravates their vulnerabilities. Insofar as systems are unequal and racist in the context of coronavirus, there is a great need for social work response that is innovative, brave, and deeply connected to communities.

Key words: immigrants and refugees, immigration/emigration/migration, poverty, disaster and war

Introduction

In early 2020, the novel coronavirus was declared a global pandemic with significant health and economic implications worldwide. At the time of this writing, over 30 million individuals have contracted COVID-19, the disease caused by coronavirus, and around 950,000 have died (World Health Organization (WHO, 2020). Beyond the public health crisis, economies have been severely impacted across the world. New fears about the effects of stay-at-home measures and the long-term health implications of the virus emerged among governments and citizens alike. This pandemic has laid bare the inequalities woven into our social fabric, including our institutions, systems, and policies. From education and employment to housing and health care, various domains of life have been impacted. The economic and health repercussions of the coronavirus pandemic touched communities in different ways, leaving marginalized populations more vulnerable to infections (Clark et al., 2020).

In this brief, we consider the unequal toll of the COVID-19 pandemic on immigrant communities in the U.S.. Pandemic preparedness plans in many countries fail to consider immigrant groups (Wickramage et al., 2018). In a review of the plans of 119 countries, the WHO (2011) found that only 11% included targeted strategies to assist immigrants. During the 2020 COVID-19 crisis, immigrant communities, along with African American and indigenous communities, often with poverty and low socioeconomic status, have been among those who suffered greater economic damage, increased health risks, and worse health outcomes in the U.S.. Disproportionate impacts of pandemics upon immigrants should not be surprising. History illustrates how immigrants experience exclusion and graver impacts during health emergencies (Steege et al., 2009). For example, during the 1918–1919 Spanish flu pandemic, outreach to immigrant groups providing needed information and assistance in coping was limited (Kraut, 2010). Also, during the tuberculosis health crisis in the 1920s, Mexican and Filipino immigrants were expelled from Los Angeles, making health services practically unavailable (Abel, 2007). More recently, when Hurricane Katrina struck Louisiana in 2005, Latinx immigrants received low priority in federal assistance efforts (Mathew amp; Kelly, 2008).

Despite this record of immigrant treatment during past public health crises, our current moment reveals no lessons learned. We discuss issues pertaining to their health, employment, and access to health care and welfare services, in the context of restrictive immigration policies. We use the term immigrant throughout this article to refer to those documented and undocumented immigrants, seasonal migrants, farmworkers, resettled refugees, and asylum seekers. We close with reflections on social work practice amid the pandemic, and a call to action to the profession to advocate and support the more vulnerable immigrant communities, from helping assuage their anxieties to engaging in prevention efforts.

In the initial months of the pandemic, the U.S. employed public health measures to protect against the coronavirus crisis by “closing” parts of the country, which included requiring individuals to stay at home and restricting businesses from opening to the public in an effort to “flatten the curve” (Lee et al., 2020). However, millions of immigrants have continued working in fields, factories, grocery stores, janitorial services, and other “essential” workplaces. These workers, who have historically ex
