Harlem Bespoke: The percentage map of positive
COVID-19 results in greater New York City was released last week and now the city has finally reported the demographic numbers for racial groups most affected. Deaths by complications of the coronavirus are highest amongst hispanics at 34 percent even though they represent 29 percent of the population. Blacks deaths are at 28 percent which is also higher than the 22 percent population share. Whites were at 27 percent but make up a greater part of the population at 32 percent. Asians appear to be the lowest on the list with 7 percent deaths with a 14 percent share of the population which refutes the bias that this us only an Asian disease. More detail in the New York Post:
