Like many other states, Nevada’s covid cases unfortunately hit populations of color drastically more than white populations. This graph shows the total number of cases by each race. In Nevada, Hispanic/Latinx alone make up only 28 percent of the population, yet they make up 43 percent of the percentage of cases. Whites alone make up 50 percent of the population, yet make up only 31 percent of the percentage of cases.
A story idea would be to research why this is, perhaps Hispanic/Latinx make up more essential workers, have less access to solid, healthcare etc.
