The Alliance is alarmed by the disproportionate amount of COVID-19 deaths across the country among minority populations, especially during #MinorityHealthMonth

25% of COVID-19 patients in LA also have #KidneyDisease. During #MinorityHealthMonth, we need to realize COVID-19’s worst cases will be those w/ underlying conditions and will disproportionately impact people of color just as #ESRD does. vox.com/identities/202…

"Dialyzing at home rather than in a dialysis center has the potential to reduce the likelihood of patients becoming infected." #HomeDialysis #COVID19 renalandurologynews.com/home/news/neph…

Immunocompromised #ESRD patients are more likely to contract severe cases of COVID-19, and minority populations experience higher numbers of #ESRD. During #minorityhealthmonth, we must work to fix these disparities.

African Americans make up 4% of Iowa’s population, but are 8.7% of the confirmed COVID-19 cases. African Americans are also 3x more likely to have #KidneyDisease #MinorityHealthMonth desmoinesregister.com/story/news/hea…

Hispanics have a 35% higher #ESRD rate and need #dialysis. COVID-19 can worsen kidney function. We need to be aware of the racial disparities of #ESRD and COVID-19 during #MinorityHealth month.
