Understanding the historical reasons for health inequalities between indigenous peoples and the Torres Strait Islanders is important for a common vision of the success and future prospects of contact with indigenous peoples and the people of the Torres Strait Islanders. Along with Australian colonization, extinction of indigenous peoples and the Torres Strait Islander began with the introduction of massive carnage and previously unknown infectious diseases. By 1850, only 10% of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders were still alive. Islanders of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait were deprived of land and then isolated in protected areas and missions. Government assimilation policy oversees extensive destruction of families and communities by often robbing their children (often referred to as "stolen generation"). Health inequality that they continue to experience may be related to systematic discrimination. "

Inequality in indigenous peoples and Torres Strait Islanders' social and determinants: a population-based cross-sectional study in Victoria, Australia

The unequal health condition of indigenous peoples and the people of the Torres Strait Islander is related to systematic discrimination. Historically, people of the islanders of the Aboriginal and Torres straits are not as healthy as non-indigenous people. This is due to the lack of access to mainstream services, low access to medical services including primary care, and lack of supply of medical infrastructure for some indigenous and Torres Strait Islanders communities. This heritage has remained completely resolved and is a major obstacle to fully enjoying the right to health by indigenous people and Torres Strait Islanders.
