Stoneleigh Fellow Jessica Beard and her research colleagues have published a new study examining the people and places impacted by interpersonal firearm violence during the COVID-19 pandemic in Philadelphia.
Previous work by researchers at the Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University into the recent surge in firearm violence across Philadelphia during the COVID-19 pandemic found that it was strongly associated with the enactment of containment measures.
Now, new research published in the journal Preventive Medicine builds on those findings by examining the people and places impacted by interpersonal firearm violence during the COVID-19 pandemic in Philadelphia.
