Covid-19’s Devastating Toll On Black And Latino Americans by husseinmarx: 4:40am On Jun 23, 2020 |
The US health system has failed black and Latino populations for decades. Now they’re paying the price. It has been clear for some time that the coronavirus pandemic is killing black and Latino Americans at disproportionately high rates, but new data from the last few days reveals just how devastating the Covid-19 crisis has been for people of color. Starting in New York City, the American epicenter of the outbreak: Black New Yorkers are dying at twice the rate of their white peers; Latinos in the city are also succumbing to the virus at a much higher rate than white or Asian New Yorkers. The same trends can be seen in infection and hospitalization rates, too.[img]https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/kPZ_KJnzj-r3QyGJhz-hZvvSNNg=/0x0:2122x840/920x0/filters:focal(0x0:2122x840):format(webp):no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/19909334/Screen_Shot_2020_04_17_at_1.06.01_PM.png[/img] |
