WASHINGTON (Sputnik) – Hispanic Americans have been dying from COVID-19 at three times the national average as a consequence of President Donald Trump’s pandemic policy, while his actions on Cuba have left the government there stronger and more repressive, Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden said in a speech in Miami.
“The infection rate among Hispanics is almost three times higher [than the national average]. More than 40,000 Hispanics have died from COVID-19,” Biden said in his speech on Monday.
Biden was speaking in the Little Havana district of Miami, Florida, a region that saw its Cuban-American community overwhelmingly support Trump when he narrowly won the state in the 2016 presidential election.
Biden also slammed the president’s policies on Cuba saying they had failed for four years.
Florida, with 29 Electoral College votes, is one of the four most populous states in the United States, and a must-win for the Trump campaign in its plans for the 3 November election.
