Below is an extensive article on the state of maternal healthcare in Texas, where 1/3 of women of child-bearing age lack any form of insurance.

The point in my posting it here is to illustrate how many people's healthcare is compromised already in the U.S. and that that may well affect the state of the pandemic.

People whose health is already compromised being more likely to get Covid and more likely to have a serious case thereof.
