The report points to social disparities such as"crowded living conditions, food and housing insecurity, wealth and educational gaps, and racial discrimination" as factors that may have contributed to these racial inequities.
"What COVID has done is really shone a spotlight on these long-standing health disparities that affect children and people of color in our society," Goyal said."I truly hope that this is a call to action, that we as a society come together to really try to mitigate these disparities by addressing those root causes.
Researchers also found that the majority of deaths occurred in older patients: 70% of those who died were between the ages of 10 and 20 while just 10% were infants under one year of age. Goyal said that while any death among youth is alarming, it's important to note that "the risk of death is extremely low" for children who contract COVID-19. Americans under the age of 21 account for just .08% of the more than 190,000 deaths reported across the country.
I am betting they all have lots of other health issues but the FAKE NEWS MEDIA MAFIA would never tell that or tell what they really died of!
Those minorities tend to be in the poorest schools with the least resources and limited access to quality affordable healthcare thanks to the GOP policies which continuously circumvent social justice!
If I had to sit at a desk surrounded by that plexiglass 3/4 box I would feel like I was being shamed, it would lower my self esteem 😢
soledadobrien But you would think being more at risk they would wear masks correctly, but these are the people I keep seeing with mask at their chin or below their nose. You may need to work on that message too to reduce the spread.
Have we run out of new news stories?
Virus is racist
Because of health disparities, we are the most at risk. These GOP'ers don't care about what happens to us at all. They whine about wearing masks while continuing to be the vectors for disease.
TrumpCovidImpotence IF COVID AFFECTS ALL ORGANS, DESTROYS HEART MUSCLE... THEN WHATS IT DOING TO THE 'FAMILY JEWELS' 🤫AFTER IT DAMAGES BRAIN FUNCTION, NERVE CELLS, BLOOD VESSELS, BLOOD PRESSURE... (ALL ASYMPTOMATICALLY)?😳
YOU WILL NOT UNDERSTAND THIS BUT THIS IS THE REASON: SKIN COLOR (Races) have SIGNIFICANT meaning, contrary to what you believe. Here is the HIDDEN TRUTH...
So the assumption: possibly tied to poverty / how they live?
Welcome to this broadcast
calimbnyc If you are from black/brown community and you think 🤔 trump is your interest and plan to vote 🗳 for him remember your children are going to be his corona sacrificial lambs let your voice be heard by voting 🗳 themotherfucker out of office
Why is that? Why are some cultures more predisposed to the VIRUS?
The study sites racial discrimination as a factor. I'm curious on the details of how they came up with that or if they just throw that into every article as a factor these days. Is the virus racists?

Why? No BS please. Is it like sickle cell disease that attacks folks of color? There’s got to be a biological reason. All of us need to know why.
And is that the whites fault too? Or just genetics? I think you need to take that fact up with China if it’s true,
That's why Trump has no qualms insisting kids go back to school.
China is not a fan of minorities.
Vitamin D.
Damn racist virus. More reason to question everything we’re being told about Covid-19
As a teacher seeing this data, it is not good and I don't like it
