[quote=Anonymous][quote]There's nothing inherent to being Latino that makes you more vulnerable to covid. It's the factors that are associated with being Latino in the US, including low income, in-person job, lack of access to health care, etc. Which also apply to the poor people in Maine who are white.[/quote] This is where the concept of intersectionality will come in very useful. Poverty is a risk factor, but so is being Latino, because we know from extensive research that the medical system suffers from problems with systemic racism in which minorities receive worse care and have their needs taken less seriously. So, yes, poor white Mainers suffer from some of the same challenges as poor Latino Arizonans, but poor Latino Arizonans suffer additional challenges on top of those caused by poverty. [/quote]
