Race and health in the United States

Research shows many health disparities among different racial and ethnic groups in the United States.[1][2][3][4][5] Different outcomes in mental and physical health exist between all U.S. Census-recognized racial groups, but these differences stem from different historical and current factors, including genetics, socioeconomic factors, and racism.[5] Research has demonstrated that numerous health care professionals show implicit bias in the way that they treat patients.[6] Certain diseases have a higher prevalence among specific racial groups, and life expectancy also varies across groups.[2][3][4]
