Thank you for the excellent question.
Through you, Mr. Chair, there's no question at all that we lack adequate data when it comes to race-based illness in this country. I think we've heard calls from many jurisdictions now to try to collect those areas so that we can identify and track health disparities and redeploy resources where they are most needed based on actual data.
I agree that the science and how we implement our measures are going to be critically important but we don't know where to point our additional resources if we don't track the data to understand the problem in the first place.
