80% of Singapore's population of 5.7 million people has been fully vaccinated against COVID-19, the island city-state's Health Minister Ong Ye Kung announced Sunday.
Why it matters: Singapore has one of the world's highest coronavirus vaccination rates, and the milestone means the government can continue loosening restrictions and prepare to allow fully vaccinated travelers from some other nations to visit.
Younger Latinosare much more likely than their non-Hispanic counterparts to provide financial support to family members during the pandemic, despite barely having savings or emergency funds of their own, per an Ipsos/Bank of America poll.
Why it matters: People of color have borne the brunt of the pandemic’s economic fallout, and Latinos also have a higher ratio of COVID-19 infection and death than other groups when compared with white non-Hispanics, per CDC data.
