Bolaji S. Aregbeshola et al.

Summary: Nigeria raised over $560.52 million to combat COVID-19, with more than 90% coming from the private sector and donors.

Sexual and Gender Minority Young Adult Coping Disparities During the COVID-19 Pandemic

Evan A. Krueger et al.

Summary: This study examined disparities in health-related behaviors among sexual and gender minority (SGM) young adults during the COVID-19 pandemic. Results showed that LGBQ men and women, as well as TNB respondents, were more likely to engage in negative coping behaviors than heterosexual men. Tailored public health and clinical interventions are needed to address these disparities and reduce the adverse impact of the pandemic on SGM young adults.
