NYC Subway Data Reveals Communities of Color Carry the Burden of Essential Work and COVID-19
A new study shows there was substantial social distancing inequalities throughout New York City during the COVID-19 pandemic. Researchers reported that areas with the lowest individual income and a greater percentage of non-white and/or Hispanic/Latino individuals, used the subway to a greater degree during the pandemic, and the strongest driver of subway use in communities of color was the percent of individuals in essential work.

Findings are online in the preprint of medRxiv ahead of peer-reviewed publication.
