The COVID-19 crisis has illustrated clearly that “housing is health care.” The 567,000 people experiencing homelessness in the U.S. face heightened risk for contracting COVID-19 due to the circumstances surrounding their lack of housing. Simultaneously, an outbreak of COVID-19 among people who are homeless could threaten already burdened health systems, showing the critical interconnections between housing and health care. We describe strategies to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 for homeless populations and for the health care system. Looking forward, we suggest that guaranteeing housing for all is an essential step toward reducing the societal burden of the next pandemic.https://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/154767/1/Doran main article.pdfDescription of Doran main article.pdf : Main articl
