Deprivation is a central driver of coronavirus disparities among minority ethnic groups, research suggests.
Reducing deprivation could play a “pivotal role” in reducing inequalities in outcomes such as disproportionate Covid-19 infections, hospital admissions and deaths in south Asian and black communities, according to analysis.
Researchers from the University of Leicester modelled a hypothetical scenario where the 50% most deprived of a sample of 407,830 south Asian, black and white individuals were lifted out of material deprivation.
Deprivation was calculated based on unemployment, non-car ownership, non-home ownership and household overcrowding.
