Unfortunately, many of the unique strategic advantages of integrated primary care psychology turned into disadvantages in the context of the pandemic and quarantine. Sharing clinic space, conference rooms, and exams rooms with physicians and their acutely ill patients became a hazard for both the psychology trainees and the patients who were going to a primary care clinic solely for their mental health visit or staying for a second longer period when combining visits, thereby increasing their potential exposure. What in normal times is a highly effective way to reduce mental health disparities for low‐income or racial/ethnic minority patients, in this situation put those populations at even greater risk by having those treatments occur in a medical environment, often necessitating traveling on public transportation, creating even more risk exposure. Furthermore, a high percentage of patients in safety‐net settings have multiple chronic health conditions, making them more vulnerable to the life‐threatening complications of COVID‐19. Of note, a large portion of our safety‐net patients are Black/African American, and the early data are demonstrating that this group may be disproportionately affected by COVID‐19 (Ahmed, Ahmed, Pissarides, & Stiglitz, 2020).
