Sobering study finds that fully 48% of Covid-19 deaths in Florida were linked to health insurance gaps. That’s 5,395 of our family, friends & neighbors who might have been spared if every Floridian had access to health insurance. Florida, it’s time to expand Medicaid.
“The very communities that the pandemic hit hardest also have the largest and fastest-growing health insurance gaps, further increasing their vulnerability to the virus.” Our leaders must take action now to provide relief American families deserve. familiesusa.org/resources/th…
