针对 COVID-19 疫情及其所引发的经济危机而采取的政策应对，极大地加剧了各国国内和全球范围的不平等。明显的例子是照护工作的不公平分配——主要落在女性身上，而且报酬微薄甚至分文不给——以及全球疫苗分配上的悬殊差距。
Policy responses to the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting economic crisis have greatly exacerbated national and global inequalities. Blatant examples are the unfair distribution of care work, relying mainly on women and poorly remunerated if at all, and the global disparity in the distribution of vaccines.
