Abstract

This commentary discusses our current understanding about prevalence rates in the United States (USA) in the context of healthcare delivery to immigrants from Latin America. A literature search reveals that while prevalence rates in Latin American countries are not well documented, the rates in Latin American immigrants living in the USA are even less well known. This limited understanding compounds the health challenge facing immigrants who already have limited access to the healthcare system. To better address this problem, we suggest improved parasitological screening plus additional funding for free clinics.

摘要

本评论在为来自拉丁美洲的移民提供医疗服务的背景下,探讨了我们目前对美国患病率的理解。文献检索表明,虽然拉丁美洲国家的患病率记录不完善,但生活在美国的拉丁美洲移民的患病率更是鲜为人知。这种有限的了解加剧了那些本来就难以获得医疗系统服务的移民所面临的健康挑战。为了更好地解决这个问题,我们建议改进寄生虫学筛查,并为免费诊所提供额外资金。
