We've also published another release today that looks at the effect of the pandemic on different ethnic groups.

When looking at social, economic and environmental factors there are differences, particularly for Black and South Asian ethnic groups http://ow.ly/CG3x50CKw1o  https://twitter.com/ONS/status/1338421218689609729
Death rates for most ethnic minorities are higher compared with White ethnic groups http://ow.ly/mUeC50CKweR 
Deaths data for working men show that Black and Asian men are more likely to work in occupations that have a higher risk of death involving #COVID19 http://ow.ly/4VE050CKwly 
Older and vulnerable people from ethnic minority groups may have found it more difficult to follow "shielding" advice.

This is because multi-generational households are more common among these groups, particularly Pakistani and Bangladeshi ethnicities http://ow.ly/vCZ250CKwoD 
Most ethnic minorities are more likely to live in urban or more deprived areas, where death rates from #COVID19 are higher http://ow.ly/J9qW50CKwBg 
During lockdown, many people found solace in a garden or nearby park area, but access to green space varied by ethnicity.

Those of Black ethnicity were 2.4 times less likely than those of White ethnicity to have a private garden http://ow.ly/AZS050CKwFu
