}The research identifies major inequalities among BAME communities such as:
BAME groups are also more likely than people of white may face additional barriers in accessing services because of cultural and language differences.
Bangladeshi and Pakistani background have higher rates of cardiovascular disease than people from white British
Black Caribbean and black African ethnicity have higher rates of hypertension compared with other ethnic groups
The mortality rates from Covid-19 in the most deprived areas were found to be more than double the least deprived areas
Diabetes was 43% in the Asian group, 45% in the black group and higher in all BAME groups than for the white British population
Health Secretary Matt Hancock said: “This work underlines that being black or from a minority ethnic background is a major risk factor.
There has been a call for the government to have a public inquiry involving all BAME multicultural communities to have a deep look at this problem and come up with solutions to learn from this acute problem and learn lessons to avoid mass casualties in the future.
