ABSTRACT

The health crisis caused by the spread of COVID-19 will deepen the economic inequality already found in most countries. Among other effects, it will increase the health, educational and labour gap among citizens. Taking into account the psychosocial effects of economic inequality can be useful when proposing actions aimed at reducing its negative effects.

RESUMEN

La crisis sanitaria provocada por la propagación del COVID-19 ahondará en la desigualdad económica, ya presente en la mayoría de los países. Entre otros aspectos, incrementará la brecha sanitaria, educativa y laboral entre los ciudadanos. La consideración de los efectos psicosociales de la desigualdad económica puede ayudar en la propuesta de acciones encaminadas a reducir sus efectos negativos.
