From Neurology Open Access (July 22, 2026)--"Racial and ethnic
trends in comorbidity trends in multiple sclerosis mortality":

This article might be interpreted as pointing towards
fundamental biological differences among the races but nonwhite
people in the US tend to have lower incomes than white people,
and low-income people can't afford medical care at the level
received by the higher-income white people. And if they could
afford it somehow (insurance, for instance, or Medicaid), there
is the matter of getting to clinics, hospitals, doctors, and
pharmacies, many of which are not located accessibly for them.
Just my two cents.
