Women in Medicine - Coggle Diagram

- - - - Women in Higher Places: The Healthcare System has the second-highest number of women getting promoted per 100 men getting promoted which is 102. This means that women are more likely to get promoted than men. Although, the numbers are very close so it is likely that since everyone has similar credentials and experience since it is required for that field that promotions are simply determined by who performed the best, rather than the gender biases that tend to exist in other areas.
      - This image breaks down into greater detail women and men in senior leadership positions and then by race (just black and white no other minorities). This diagram shows that there is still a gap between men and women at the highest level with women only holding around 30% of those positions and black women holding an incredibly low percent of senior leadership positions. One thing that i think is critical to note is the percentage for both white women stays fairly consistent throughout all the different positions where as the percentage of white men in high places grows the higher up you go. This just shows the subtle racism in the field. I think although the early diagram said that women are getting promoted more than men, once you get into the higher positions men are getting promoted more often especially white men.
  - - - In Season 10 Episode 14 "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away" there is a new hospital policy that all relationships in the hospital must be kept strictly professional which causes a lot of turmoil within the hospital due to the many different relationships going on in the show. It then comes out that this policy was put in place because a resident, Leah, put in a sexual harassment complaint against Arizona, who is an attending because she felt like Arizona used her position of power to sleep with Leah. She also does it for her fellow resident, Stephanie, who also had a relationship with a higher up and felt like she was mistreated. The reaction to the new policy, as I said before, was taken badly, and another resident, Jo, even yelled at Leah and blamed her relationship "ending" on Leah. This shows the internalized misogyny by many different women but also the struggles that victims face when they come forward with their stories which inturn will discourage people to come forward with their stories of sexual assult/harassment.
- - - - Over 60% of the deaths caused by these factors could've been prevented.
  - - - Black and Latino people had significantly higher chances of having a mental health issue during quarantine and this is yet another way in which they are disproportionately affected.
