Hispanic/Latinx New Yorkers experience the disproportionate impact of a variety of health conditions such as HIV, viral hepatitis, STIs, MPV, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, respiratory illnesses, cancer, substance use disorders, and trauma. The COVID-19 pandemic has greatly impacted our communities and exacerbated pre-existing racial and ethnic health disparities. This is an opportunity for our political candidates for the 2022 election to understand the health challenges and needs of Hispanics/Latinxs in New York State.
We encourage all of our candidates to join us in working together to ensure a healthy and vibrant NYS. Together we can!
