We know that’ll be about 1,400 people die each year of asthma, and what’s really frightening about that is that majority of those deaths are actually preventable. We’ve got a lot of people walking around in the community, not realising that their asthma could be better controlled. We’ve got people being admitted to hospital, and from the South Asian community we know that is three to five times more likely.

Sometimes this led to maltreatment of them or their families, especially at heightened moments in American history such as during Japanese incarceration during World War II, the aftermath of 9/11 and, more recently, the COVID-19 pandemic. Beyond these specific moments, many in the focus groups offered their own experiences that had revealed other people’s assumptions or misconceptions about their identity.

Analyses of the National Child Measurement Programme ( NCMP) data have demonstrated that the obesity prevalence of 4 to 5 year olds and 10 to 11 year olds in England varies by ethnic group. [footnote 3] [footnote 4] It is often assumed that these differences are due to deprivation and other known determinants of child obesity which are sometimes associated with ethnicity. The tables and charts presented here show how obesity prevalence varies by ethnicity after adjustment for other explanatory variables. Data The NCMP is an annual programme that measures the height and weight of over 1 million children in Reception (aged 4 to 5 years) and Year 6 (aged 10 to 11 years) in state maintained schools in England. Although the NCMP only covers certain age groups, it includes the majority of children in those year groups. This study uses NCMP data collected in the 2016 to 2017 school year when there was an overall 95% participation rate. [footnote 5] If you belong to the breathtaking islands, this name is for you.

The Difference in the Aspect of the Children’s Duty for Their Parents in the Old PhaseAssessing the body mass index ( BMI, weight/height 2) of children is more complicated than for adults because a child’s BMI changes as they mature. In England the British 1990 growth reference (UK90) for BMI is commonly used to determine weight status according to a child’s age and sex. [footnote 6] A UK90 BMI centile of greater than or equal to 95 is considered obese using population monitoring thresholds and is the definition of obesity used here.
