Title: Racial Disparities in COVID-19 Experiences among Older Adults with Disabling Conditions
Abstract: This paper examines the experiences of older adults with disabling conditions during the COVID-19 pandemic using data from the 2020 Health and Retirement Study.  It documents the negative health, work, and financial experiences of older adults by disability status, race, and ethnicity.  It also explores the intersectionality of race and ethnicity with disability and the role of contextual factors affecting the environments in which people live (e.g., health and economic conditions) using county- and state-level data.
