Hispanic, Black Adults More Likely to Report Long COVID-19 Symptoms
Hispanic and Black respondents were more likely than other racial or ethnic groups to report COVID-19 symptoms lasting three months or longer, according to the U.S. Census Bureau?s?Household Pulse Survey?(HPS).
The HPS, an experimental online survey representative of the U.S. adult population at the state and national level, began asking about long COVID symptoms in June of 2022, more than two years after the pandemic hit the United States. It found that 31.1% of respondents ages 18 and over reported long-lasting symptoms.
Findings are based on responses collected from June to December 2022.

Respondents were asked if they had ever tested positive for or had been told by a health care provider they had COVID-19. Respondents who answered ?yes? were then asked if they had symptoms they did not have pre-COVID-19 that they still experienced at least three months later.
The?HPS data tool?allows users to explore a number of different national, state and metro area estimates, including the percentage of adults who experienced long COVID symptoms.
