Abstract
To explore the effects of culture and "minority" status on mental health during the pandemic, we examined survey responses from English and Spanish-speaking individuals globally, including measures such as stress, loneliness, and depression. Ethnic group comparison revealed that the Hispanic/Latino-American group suffered worse mental health than any other groups.
