Inflation is making it harder for Americans — particularly minorities — to afford timely medical care for serious illnesses, according to a new national poll.
It's just one of the findings from the poll, which took up the recent consequences of inflation, particularly on minorities.
"It's very striking," Blendon said. "We're in an inflationary period here and it's unusually broadly hitting minority communities even worse than everyone else."The poll from NPR, The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health was conducted on a nationally representative sample of more than 4,000 adults.
In the past year, 16% of Black renters, 10% of Latino renters, 21% of Native American renters say they have either been evicted or threatened with eviction. Less than 5% of Asian renters and 9% of white renters said the same.
