Abstract

By following the story of “Juan,” we have isolated a number of possible explanations as to how and why this stigma has had such a devastating result. This episode will focus on governmental regulation of and rhetoric towards undocumented immigrants that has perpetuated a cycle of mistrust, resulting in an epidemic of undocumented Latinx peoples who fear the healthcare system. In addition, by examining pre-existing conditions and access to healthcare in undocumented Latinx communities, we attempt to explain the connection between stigma, the pandemic, and adverse health outcomes in these communities.
