Aside from covid-19 medical concerns, consider food. Specifically, processed
foods and convenience stores and the dearth of supermarkets in many inner
city areas and other places where the less-well-off live. This is another
medical issue. And, if you want to learn more read Michael Moss' "Salt,
Sugar, Fat." He's an investigative reporter and this 2012 book won a
Pulitzer Prize.

Societal problems are highly complex and really difficult to resolve. Most
of us are really unqualified to know what to do which is why we stumble
along and sometimes implment an incremental improvement that sticks and
encourages further incremental improvements.
