Letter to the Editor - Another public health issue

Editor,

While dealing with the devastation and uncertainty wrought by the COVID-19 pandemic, yet another public health problem has reared its ugly head. Racial prejudice. As a physician I can assure you we all look alike “on the inside” and as a Christian I know we all look the same to God.

Healing this malady is simpler than dealing with any virus. It entails altering our everyday thoughts and comments. Stop uttering racial slurs, even in private. Do not have unwarranted fear of others based solely on their skin color and or ethnicity. Try your best to live by the “Golden Rule” of doing to others as you would have them do to you. Thereby become a positive influence to those around us.

Let us all work together to heal this country — it is never too late.

Mark R. Miles, M.D.
