Hispanic deaths in Kansas no difference to 26 in week ending March 12

Pharma

There were 26 Hispanic people who died in Kansas in the week ending March 12, according to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

The data shows no difference from the week before when 26 people of Hispanic origin died.

Many records within the CDC are incomplete, as only 60 percent of death records are submitted within 10 days of death.

The Brookings Institute believes deaths among minority populations, specifically Hispanic and Blacks, are chronically underreported.

The U.S. Census defines Hispanic people as those who self-identify as such, often with relatives from regions such as Central and Southern America.
