Doesnt have anything to do with the fact that a lot of Latinos live in multi generational households, nah it’s all racism of some type.

Also, many would rather go to their prayer meetings or birthday parties or beer-drinking gatherings than sit around, alone, with masks on being frightened.

In terms of death, the pandemic has gone easy on Latinos, at least in Colorado:

Hispanic: 38.6% of population, 22.75% of deaths.

Caucasion: 36.87 of population, 62.80% of deaths.

“Latin American” is in the neuter gender, as is “Hispanic.”
