Black, Hispanic, Native Americans Have Borne the Burden of Years of Life Lost From the Pandemic | Jonathan and Karin Fielding School of Public Health

A UCLA Fielding School of Public Health-led team has found that Hispanic, Black, and Native Americans have carried the burden of the pandemic, both in overall mortality and specifically in years of potential life lost, in an analysis of 45 U.S. states and the District of Columbia (D.C.).
“COVID-19 certainly didn’t cause these racial/ethnic disparities in health outcomes, but it did highlight and bring unprecedented national attention to long-standing societal and health inequalities that many communities of color in the U.S. face,” said
Dr. Ron Brookmeyer, dean of the Fielding School and distinguished professor of biostatistics. “It is imperative that we rise to the challenge of addressing the health needs of communities of color, both during the U.S. COVID-19 epidemic and long after its conclusion.” ....

Not long after the start of COVID-19 pandemic, communities of color as well as underserved communities, in general, complained about their lack of access to testing.
More than a year later, some diagnostic companies say they are seeing a decline in COVID-19 testing as more tests are being made available. Yet for those in neighborhoods where access to tests were limited, challenges to getting a SARS-CoV-2 test remains.
To try to address this, the U.S. National Institutes of Health s Rapid Acceleration of Diagnostics Underserved Populations (RADx-UP) initiative has provided funding for projects that aim to implement ways to widen access to testing and fill in healthcare gaps for these communities. ....
