Fauci described what is needed to remedy this inequality from health, now and in the future. "Ensure that good testing and immediate access resources focus on the distribution of resources between the Latinx community," he said. "But too, I think it must now define and reshape this extraordinary disparity related to the social determinants of the health of the Latinx community. The fact that they have a higher incidence of comorbidities that put you in danger - it is to say something you do not repair in a month or a year. It is something that requires a commitment of decades to modify these social determinants, which make this community more likely to diabetes, to obesity, to Hypertension, to a kidney disease. "
