Berkeley Interdisciplinary Migration Initiative

Read BIMI's new policy brief, The Impact of COVID-19 on Filipino Nurses: An Intersectional and Scientific Look at Public Health, by Dewi Zarni. Fraser. This policy brief discusses how Filipino immigrant nurses are one group that appears to be especially vulnerable to COVID-19. It examines BIMI-affiliate and UC Berkeley Ethnic Studies Professor Catherine Ceniza Choy's work that explores the difference in work experiences and characteristics of Philippinestrained RNs compared to U.S.-trained, white RNs.
