Document: In a study of 44,672 confirmed cases of COVID-19 from China, the case-fatality rate was highest among the elderly (7). In the United States, among 2,449 cases from February 12 to March 16, 2020, 53% of ICU admissions and 80% of deaths occurred among adults aged ≥65, with the highest percentage of severe outcomes among adults aged ≥85 years (8) . Poverty ( Figure S2 ), independently, heightens vulnerability to COVID-19, due to its association with higher risk of comorbidities, decreased access to care (15, 16, 24) , and reduced ability to practice social distancing (25) . During the H1N1 2009 pandemic, age-adjusted rates of hospitalization were found to be significantly higher in high-poverty neighborhoods relative to low-poverty neighborhoods in New York City (26) . We are already beginning to see the differential effects of COVID-19 across communities, with higher burden found in high poverty areas in the United States (27, 28) .
