As you can see below, African Americans and Hispanic/Latinos are more likely to die to the Corona Virus whether they be hospitalized or not.

Corona's Effect on Minorities

Racial/ethnic groups are the most common in prisons, jails, and detention centers, and such close-living quarters make it that much easier to come in contact with the virus due to shared food services and multiple bunk/roomates. This becomes especially bad when realized that minorities have a higher chances to be put into holding than other nationalities for minor crimes than whites.

Corona's Effect on Minorities:
Minorities are more likely to either not be able to afford or simply not possess health insurance, which makes it harder for families to acquire treatment and medicine from doctors. This along with language barriers and financial implications makes the effect of the virus highlight some of the long-standing distrust between minorities and the modern day health care system.

Corona's Effect on Minorities:
Many members of racial/ethnic groups have been found to live farther from necessary institutions such as grocery stores and medical institutions, which makes it harder to stock up on items such as toilet paper, food, and anything else that would help poorer families stay at home. Residential segregation also is found to bring upon its own set of illnesses and misdemeanors, which makes them harmfully more vulnerable to viruses such as Covid-19.

Corona's Effect on Minorities:
People who are a part of ethnic or racial minorities are more likely to be living in densely populated areas because of residential housing segregation. Due of this, it is harder to practice healthy prevention techniques such as social distancing, being in stores with limited amounts of people, or being able to receive the help you would need if someone from your family got sick.
