0131/2024 - Desigualdades sociales en la letalidad por COVID-19 en los pueblos indígenas de México Desigualdades sociales en la letalidad por COVID-19 en los pueblos indígenas de México
El propósito del estudio fue estimar la letalidad por COVID-19 en la población indígena en México durante los años 2020 al 2022 considerando las características clínicas y sus condiciones sociales. Los datos procedían del Sistema de Vigilancia Epidemiológica de Enfermedades Respiratorias identificando a los casos positivos por COVID-19 entre la población indígena, se evaluó la letalidad de acuerdo con las condiciones clínicas y condiciones de vulnerabilidad por carencias sociales. El número de casos positivos de COVID-19 en población indígena representó el 0,7% del total de casos, la letalidad en población indígena fue de 9,8% en contraste del 4,6% en población no indígena. La letalidad fue mayor en los hombres, sin embargo, en contraste con la población no indígena, la asociación con diabetes, hipertensión, insuficiencia renal crónica, obesidad y tabaquismo fue menor en los indígenas. Una mayor vulnerabilidad de las condiciones sociales se presentó entre la población indígena en contraste con la no indígena, principalmente en el rezago por ingreso económico, educación y el acceso a servicios de salud.

Abstract:
The purpose of the study was to estimate COVID-19 lethality in the indigenous population in Mexico during the years 2020 to 2022 considering clinical characteristics and social conditions. The data camethe Epidemiological Surveillance System of Respiratory Diseases, identifying the positive cases of COVID-19 among the indigenous population; lethality was evaluated according to clinical conditions and conditions of vulnerability due to social deprivation. The number of positive cases of COVID-19 in the indigenous population represented 0,7% of the total number of cases; the case fatality rate in the indigenous population was 9,8% in contrast to 4,6% in the non-indigenous population. Lethality was higher in men; however, in contrast to the non-indigenous population, the association with diabetes, hypertension, chronic renal insufficiency, obesity, and smoking was lower in the indigenous population. A greater vulnerability to social conditions was present among the indigenous population in contrast to the non-indigenous population, mainly in terms of economic income, education, and access to health services.
