GOP Senator Blames Latinos For Virus Surge

[sandensea]

A Republican senator is blaming Latinos for the resurgence of COVID-19.

Citing anecdotal evidence that contradicts federal government data, embattled Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., linked “the Hispanic population” to the steady rise of COVID-19 infections in his home state.

“And I will tell you, I’m not a scientist, and I’m not a statistician, but one of the concerns that we’ve had more recently is that the Hispanic population now constitutes about 44% of the cases — the positive cases,” the Republican senator said.
