Explore the critical issue of maternal health inequity in this 50-minute panel discussion from Aspen Ideas: Health 2022. Delve into the alarming disparities in maternal and infant mortality rates in the United States, particularly affecting Black women and women of color. Examine the case of tennis star Serena Williams' near-fatal experience post-childbirth as a stark example of how even fame and resources cannot fully protect against these risks. Investigate the factors contributing to the widening gap in health outcomes and the unacceptably high complication rates among women of color. Engage with expert panelists as they discuss the root causes of these disparities and propose potential solutions to address this urgent public health crisis. Gain insights into the complex interplay of systemic issues, healthcare practices, and societal factors that have led to this situation, and explore strategies for improving maternal health outcomes for all women.
