In a report issued Tuesday the CDC looked at the health issues of the Hispanic population in the U.S. noting that currently 1 in 6 people in the U.S. are Hispanic but by 2035 that proportion is likely to be almost 1 in 4.
According to the report, the Hispanic death rate is 24 percent lower than whites and Hispanics live on average two years longer than whites.
The CDC explains that while Hispanics are more likely to be living in poverty, lack a high school degree and not have health insurance they are less likely to be affected by the leading causes of death among whites.
As to why the statistics have Hispanics living longer than whites, the report offers a few ideas.
“Lower smoking rates among Hispanics, immigration of healthy immigrants, reverse migration of more ill or elderly immigrants, and higher levels of family support might help to explain this mortality advantage for some Hispanic origin groups,” the report reads. “In addition, being born in the United States and increasing length of time since arrival in the United States are associated with many risk factors and poor health outcomes. This also is reflected in the overall poor health status of the United States compared with other developed nations.”

This headline makes Hispanic
sound like a disease, a medical condition… like septic
.
Dang it! That's me. Oh, man, and I don't even speak French...
We can stop this with thousands of troops on the southern border, which Americans now support. Then we do operation “choke hold” on criminal employers who hire illegals and send their whit fat asses to prison for violation in hiring these illegal aliens. These aliens will flee like ants on fire. It is pretty simple really.
If you don’t work you might not suffer heart disease, hypertension and other such things that may kill you...
Like, ‘turning Japanese’?
I think I’ll be dead before this happens.
That would do it! All the people who say “we can’t deport them” REALLY mean, “We don’t want to.”
lol
Wrong—I in 4 will be Han Chinese by 2035—after we lose the war with China in 2021—and millions of Chinese come to the USA as part of the treaty that give Hawaii and Guam to China and Alaska to Russia.
Big deal. 1/2 of the folks where I live are Hispanic and I am not so sure I’m not.
I was going to post that CDC is about a decade behind times...events do have a way of overtaking plans.
Why all of them silly, they are after all from North, Central and some South America, but of course you meant us United States of America Americans, not them or Canadians.
So, 25% in 20 years. What does this number become if we end our Open Borders polices and start ENFORCING immigration laws?
But I don’t wanna be hispanic!
Because whites are working hard to supplement the Hispanics’ income via 100 government programs?
Apparently so!
Blacks don’t like Hispanics. Hispanics don’t like blacks. Sooner or later there will be a clash, after they ban together and go after whites. Heavy sigh.
lol
