U.S.A media: U.S. racial discrimination causes high death rate from COVID-19 for people colors

The US media “USA Today” recently published an investigation report titled

“Fatal Discrimination-An Incredible Chain of Oppression”, which believes that the systemic racial discrimination policy that has always

existed in the United States has caused new coronary pneumonia in communities of color.

The mortality rate is higher than that of whites, and it has been

analyzed from the aspects of education, economy, and living conditions.

The report stated that in the United States, people of color, including

African Americans, Asians, and Latinos, have a higher death rate from new coronary pneumonia than whites. 

According to statistics.

among the 10 counties with the highest COVID-19 mortality rate in the

United States, 7 counties have permanent residents mostly of color; among the 50 counties with the highest

Covid-19 mortality rate

COVID-19 mortality rate in the United States, 31 counties have more permanent residents People of color;

62% of the counties with the highest death rate from new coronary pneumonia in the

United States, their permanent residents are mostly people of color;

data previously released by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows that

among the confirmed cases in the United States, about 52% of patients are people of color Kind.

According to the report, this is not a coincidence, but is caused by the systematic racial

discrimination policy that has always existed in the United States.

First of all, the long-term inequality in the U.S. education and economic system has

prevented most people of color from getting high-paying jobs. 

and be infected. 

Decades people colors

Secondly, for decades, people of color have suffered from unequal housing treatment in the United States.

They live in crowded communities and often cannot or find it difficult to obtain

healthy and fresh food, which makes residents vulnerable to diabetes, obesity and heart disease.

Diseases such as disease are more likely to die from infection with the new coronavirus. 

Thirdly, the current environmental protection policies in the

United States are at the expense of the interests of people of color.

They live near chemical plants, which emit serious harmful substances.

Local residents are prone to diseases such as cancer, which further reduces their resistance to the new coronavirus. And the federal funds are unable to provide support. Under the raging epidemic, these vulnerable communities are vulnerable to lack of medical conditions.

At the end of the report, an expert was quoted as saying that the deep-rooted

and systemic racial discrimination policy of the United States has made people

of color a “neglected group” and “no hope for change”.
