Racism and Discrimination Stops Young Asian People from Accessing Health Services: February 08, 2022

A study looking into a survey of highschool students has found that experiences of racism and discrimination keep young asian people from accessing health services in New Zealand. News and Editorial Director Jemima Huston interviews Dr Roshini Peirs-John, Associate Professor at the School of Population Health in Auckland and co-investigator in this study. They talk about what the study entailed, the Youth19 survey it's based on and why it is important to break down the catchall ethnicity term 'Asian' into more specific Asian ethnic groupings to provide better health policies and data.
