I concur with your articles sentiments, in California one in three Hispanics are un-insured (from 2007 Census figures). I believe those numbers are actually one in two because of our terrible economic times. You will find that in places like Texas and Florida the same statistics, the consequences are going to hit America hard over the next 10 years. Another harsh reality is that most Hispanics are undiagnosed for "Diabetes & HBP"- last week a study was published that showed a growing incidence of breast cancer within the Hispanic female population due to undiagnosed. Hispanics need to start eating correctly and taking Healthcare serious, I am Hispanic and I realized at 45 that I needed to take control of my own health. I scheduled a physical and found out that I was healthy (thank god), but needed to loose approx. 20lbs- as of today I have lost the weight and feel great, we all need to take control of our lives.
