[quote=Anonymous]So I understand that POC overall have had worse outcomes with COVID. But have there been any studies showing that race alone is a contributing factor? Or is it that POC are more likely to live in crowded/substandard conditions, poorer health overall and less access to healthcare? In other words, is there any reason to believe that an AA person of similar age, health, and socioeconomic status to their white neighbor is still more predisposed to a worse outcome? Not trying to start a controversy, just wondering if researchers have dug into this. We know that different races have different outcomes with sickle cell anemia, for instance.[/quote]
