Abstract
During the COVID-19 pandemic, certain populations were more likely to be infected, become ill, and suffer worse outcomes than others. Additionally, the response measures put in place to prevent viral spread had disproportionately negative impacts on certain groups of people compared to others. Local public health has a role in not only mitigating the infectious disease impacts but also those related to equity. This paper describes multi-sectoral initiatives led by a local public health agency in the district of Timiskaming, Ontario, Canada to address inequities tied to the pandemic. The authors reflect on this experience to identify opportunities for rural community actors, including local public health, to build community resilience and reduce the impact of future emergencies.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
