Racial and ethnic disparities in age-specific all-cause mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic



JAMA Network





About The Study: 

In this cross-sectional study of the U.S. population during the COVID-19 public health emergency, excess mortality occurred in all racial and ethnic groups, with disparities affecting several minoritized populations. The greatest relative increases occurred in populations ages 25 to 64. Documented differences deviated from pre-pandemic disparities.
