@Pam60 Exactly! We need the long-term efforts like the mayor and others are trying to implement, and we need short-term solutions (done in a way to not exacerbate inequities) to help bridge the gap until the long-term efforts start reducing the need for those short-term band-aids. Like in medical care … give patient meds to help reduce BP while also helping to change lifestyle (diet/exercise, etc) until the pt no longer needs the BP meds #STL #StLouis
