description The COVID-19 pandemic exposed and expanded upon pre-existing healthcare disparities. Individuals with disabilities and those who identify with racial/ethnic minority groups have been disproportionately adversely impacted.1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 These inequities are likely present in the proportions of individuals impacted by post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC) requiring specialized rehabilitation. Specific populations including, but not limited to pregnant, pediatric, and older individuals, may also necessitate tailored medical care during acute infection and beyond. Telemedicine may reduce the care gap. Further research and clinical guidance are needed to provide equitable, culturally competent, and individualized care to these historically or socially marginalized and underrepresented populations.
