Project 3 material

Outline:

In the Covid-19 Vaccine Access and Attitudes among People Experiencing Homelessness from

Pilot Mobile Phone Survey in Los Angeles, CA. PLOS ONE, Public Library of Science, the

homeless population is having a harder time accessing covid vaccines due to hesitant and being

undersupplied. Also, the hesitation is due to a belief that the covid vaccine will do more harm

than good.

In Homelessness and Public Health in Los Angeles, it highlights the struggles from getting the

covid vaccines and the daily challenges that the homeless face. Also, it highlights other diseases

that have broken out because of vaccine hesitancy.

In Vaccine Decision-Making in Racial and Ethnic Minority Communities in Los Angeles,

California, it highlights that the covid vaccines were undersupplied to ethnic minority

communities especially in the homeless population. Also it highlights the racism and disparities

in the distribution of the covid vaccine.

In COVID-19 innovations in medication for addiction treatment at a Skid Row syringe exchange,

it highlights the importance of the covid vaccine among the homeless population who use illegal

substances. Also, it highlights the importance for these communities to get the vaccine as they

are at higher risk of infection to covid-19.

Kuhn, Randall, et al. Covid-19 Vaccine Access and Attitudes among People Experiencing

Homelessness from Pilot Mobile Phone Survey in Los Angeles, CA. PLOS ONE, Public Library

of Science, https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0255246

The homeless population in L.A county is having a harder time in accessing covid

vaccines. There is a common belief that the covid vaccines can hinder a person’s health by

damaging their internal organs. Also, the recent spike in being hesitant of taking the vaccine is

similar to outbreaks of hepatitis in the homeless population because of the same hesitancy of not

taking the Hep A vaccine. Lastly, only a small percentage of the homeless population was

sampled which would not give the whole picture on the overall attitudes about the covid vaccine.

This article does relate back to the project 3 thesis since I will use this source as the main

resource since the thesis was based off of this resource. The topic of this is going to be very

similar in how I formulate the essay in terms of project 3, since the topic is about the homeless

not having enough resources to get the covid-19 vaccine. Lastly, the stakeholders in this resource

are the same as the stakeholder in the project 3 thesis.

Kuhn, Randall, et al. Homelessness and Public Health in Los Angeles. EScholarship,

University of California, 2 Apr. 2020, https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2gn3x56s.

This resource is about the struggles of the daily lives of the homeless population in the

L.A area. It mentions how people become homeless which includes bad luck, being in poverty

for most of their lives, etc. It also talks about how some of the resources like healthcare, dental,

and vision are not as accessible to the homeless population making them more at risk for diseases

such as meningitis, hep A and typhus because of the lack of healthcare.

This resource is great to use as it will build the foundation of how the homeless

population can’t get health care and I will be able to relate this back to how the COVID vaccine

is not as accessible to that population because of the lack of healthcare and how attitudes towards

the vaccine were ultimately made. Also this resource highlights the many attitudes that were

developed not from COVID but from other highly contagious diseases which influence the

behavior of not getting the COVID vaccine. Lastly, this resource directly relates back to the

project 3 thesis since it utilizes the stakeholder of the homeless population.

Communities in Los Angeles, California. JAMA Network Open, JAMA Network, 30 Sept. 2021,

https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2784592.

This resource claims that the COVID vaccine was undersupplied to many communities in

L.A and was most severe in the low-income communities and the homeless communities. The

resource utilizes data taken from a sample population in L.A and highlights that the minority

communities have been undersupplied compared to the other communities around L.A. Lastly,

the data and facts that were presented were of only minority communities and no sample was

taken in the other communities.

This resource can be utilized greatly since it highlights the other communities compared

with the homeless community. It could also be used as a way of being a counterargument in the

essay since it has data that proves that not only the COVID vaccines were a problem for just the

homeless population but other communities as well. Lastly, the topic of the COVID vaccines not

being accessible does relate to this resource since this resource does show that COVID vaccines

are not being accessed by a certain population.

This resource is about how the homeless population in the L.A area is having problems

with COVID-19 infections because of the overcrowdedness of the shelters and the undersupply

of vaccines that are available to them to combat this rise in infections. It also mentions a known

homeless population in L.A, the Skid Row homeless community, as the data is collected from

this community. It also mentions that other diseases are rising in addition to COVID-19 as more

of the homeless population is using more illegal substances.

This resource is great in supporting the topic of covid-19 vaccine not being accessible

since this highlights a rise of infections. I could use this data as evidence to highlight that the

homeless population is not receiving enough covid vaccines and that the data supports it. Lastly

the stakeholders is again the same as the project 3 thesis in that it is of the homeless population

in L.A.

Rough Draft:

COVID-19 has brought light to the fact that the homeless population has suffered more to

this disease. This is brought light into the following articles, Covid-19 Vaccine Access and

Attitudes among People Experiencing Homelessness from Pilot Mobile Phone Survey in Los

Angeles, CA, Homelessness and Public Health in Los Angeles, vaccine Decision-Making in

Racial and Ethnic Minority Communities in Los Angeles, California, & COVID-19 innovations

in medication for addiction treatment at a Skid Row. Additionally with these articles, all of them

highlights problems within the homeless population in the L.A county area as historically, the

L.A county is cultural diverse but with diverse comes with a higher population density which

effects the job market in that area to the point of growing a homeless population within the

streets of that area.

In the first article, Covid-19 Vaccine Access and Attitudes among People Experiencing

Homelessness from Pilot Mobile Phone Survey in Los Angeles, CA, the analysis that was

gathered from the attitudes that was prevalent in the homeless community was, The homeless

population in L.A county is having a harder time in accessing covid vaccines. There is a common

belief that the covid vaccines can hinder a person’s health by damaging their internal organs.

Also, the recent spike in being hesitant of taking the vaccine is similar to outbreaks of hepatitis in

the homeless population because of the same hesitancy of not taking the Hep A vaccine. Lastly,

only a small percentage of the homeless population was sampled which would not give the

whole picture on the overall attitudes about the covid vaccine (Kuhn, Randel).

Moreover, this article does relate back to the project 3 thesis since I will use this source

as the main resource since the thesis was based off of this resource. The topic of this is going to

be very similar in how I formulate the essay in terms of project 3, since the topic is about the

homeless not having enough resources to get the covid-19 vaccine. Lastly, the stakeholders in

this resource are the same as the stakeholder in the project 3 thesis.

In the second article, Homelessness and Public Health in Los Angeles, the analysis that

was gathered was that the COVID-19 disease is more prevalent in the homeless communities in

the L.A county and highlights struggles of the daily lives of the homeless population in the L.A

area. It mentions how people become homeless which includes bad luck, being in poverty for

most of their lives, etc. It also talks about how some of the resources like healthcare, dental, and

vision are not as accessible to the homeless population making them more at risk for diseases

such as meningitis, hep A and typhus because of the lack of healthcare (Kuhn, Randel)

Additionally, this article is great to use as it will build the foundation of how the

homeless population can’t get health care and I will be able to relate this back to how the COVID

vaccine is not as accessible to that population because of the lack of healthcare and how attitudes

towards the vaccine were ultimately made. Also this resource highlights the many attitudes that

were developed not from COVID but from other highly contagious diseases which influence the

behavior of not getting the COVID vaccine. Lastly, this resource directly relates back to the

project 3 thesis since it utilizes the stakeholder of the homeless population.

In the third article, Vaccine Decision-Making in Racial and Ethnic Minority Communities

in Los Angeles, California, the COVID vaccine was undersupplied to many communities in L.A

and was most severe in the low-income communities and the homeless communities. The

resource utilizes data taken from a sample population in L.A and highlights that the minority

communities have been undersupplied compared to the other communities around L.A. Lastly,

the data and facts that were presented were of only minority communities and no sample was

taken in the other communities (Savanna L.).

In addition to this, this article can be utilized greatly since it highlights the other

communities compared with the homeless community. It could also be used as a way of being a

counterargument in the essay since it has data that proves that not only the COVID vaccines

were a problem for just the homeless population but other communities as well. Lastly, the topic

of the COVID vaccines not being accessible does relate to this resource since this resource does

show that COVID vaccines are not being accessed by a certain population.

In the last article, COVID-19 innovations in medication for addiction treatment at a Skid

Row syringe exchange, this analysis of this article highlights that the homeless population in the

L.A area is having problems with COVID-19 infections because of the overcrowdedness of the

shelters and the undersupply of vaccines that are available to them to combat this rise in

infections. It also mentions a known homeless population in L.A, the Skid Row homeless

community, as the data is collected from this community. It also mentions that other diseases are

rising in addition to COVID-19 as more of the homeless population is using more illegal

substances (“Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.. Library.”).

Moreover, this article is great in supporting the topic of covid-19 vaccine not being

accessible since this highlights a rise of infections. I could use this data as evidence to highlight

that the homeless population is not receiving enough covid vaccines and that the data supports it.

Lastly the stakeholders is again the same as the project 3 thesis in that it is of the homeless

population in L.A. were to manage this crisis in this community, it could save other

communities.

In conclusion, these analyses of the four articles highlight the problems that the homeless

population faces in the L.A area and should be addressed by the appropriate authorities to deal

with this. As these problems grow, the more outbreaks in the L.A area become more prevalent to

the point of which could cause an outbreak nationwide. This event could lead to catastrophic

events such as other diseases becoming more prevalent, which would put this pandemic into

multiple pandemics. So if the L.A area were to
