In the spring of 2020, New York City was at the center of the coronavirus pandemic in theUnited States. The essay focuses on the unequal distribution of the outcomes of the public health crisis. The prospect of being infected with the virus, losing income, leaving the city for less affected areas, working from home or continuing schooling for one’s children has been vastly different for New Yorkers depending on their socioeconomic position, race and migration background. The social and racial stratification of the impacts of the pandemic on the individual bring to the fore the vast inequalities in American society and its political and cultural polarization.
