Probability of Contagion and Mortality by COVID-19 in Indigenous and Non-indigenous Patients Initiating the Pandemic in Mexico

The objective of this research is to identify contagion and mortality factors by COVID-19 among indigenous patients in Mexico, showing their greater fragility in contrast to non-indigenous patients at the beginning of the pandemic.

description The objective of this research is to identify contagion and mortality factors by COVID-19 among indigenous patients in Mexico, showing their greater fragility in contrast to non-indigenous patients at the beginning of the pandemic. Database of May 22, 2020, of the Undersecretariat of Epidemiology of the Ministry of Health of Mexico is used, with sociodemographic, territorial, diseases variables, among others, and binary logistic models of probability of contagion and mortality are elaborated. The results show a higher risk of contagion and mortality among indigenous patients, with similar determinants compared to non-indigenous patients, but with differences related to their current places of residence for the indigenous population, linked to intermediate cities and large cities, where they migrate from their places of origin to work mainly in the informality of street vendors and without social protection, on the streets of Mexican cities.

El objetivo de esta investigación es identificar factores de contagios y decesos por COVID-19 entre pacientes indígenas de México, para mostrar su mayor fragilidad, en contraste con pacientes no indígenas al inicio de la pandemia. Se utiliza la base de datos del 22 de mayo de 2020 de la Subsecretaría de Epidemiología de la Secretaría de Salud de México, con variables sociodemográficas, territoriales, de padecimientos, entre otras, y se elaboran modelos logísticos binarios de probabilidad de contagio y deceso. Los resultados muestran mayor riesgo de contagio y de deceso entre pacientes indígenas, con determinantes similares frente a pacientes no indígenas, pero con diferencias asociadas a los actuales lugares de residencia de la población indígena, vinculadas a ciudades intermedias y grandes ciudades, a donde migran de sus lugares de origen para trabajar principalmente en la informalidad del comercio ambulante y sin protección social, en las calles de las urbes mexicanas.
