Explaining Health Care Disparities Among Hispanics

The video discusses the healthcare disparities faced by Hispanics in the US, highlighting issues such as stigma, racism, poverty, and limited access to healthcare. The pandemic exacerbated these disparities, with Hispanics more likely to be hospitalized or die from COVID-19. Socioeconomic challenges, including low income, education, and language barriers, further hinder access to healthcare. Employment in low-paying jobs without benefits and a lack of insurance coverage are significant issues. Trust in government and policy barriers also affect healthcare access, with Hispanics less likely to be vaccinated for diseases like monkeypox.
