ABSTRACT

The number of immigrants seeking entry into the U.S. through asylum requests or through irregular means is increasing, and most come from the Northern Triangle of El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras. Immigrants come fleeing extreme poverty, violence, health and social inequities, and drastic climate changes. Most had limited access to healthcare at home, and even more limited care along the journey. Those that are allowed entry into the U.S., are confronted with feeling unwelcome in many communities, having to navigate an array of local, state, and federal laws that regulate access to healthcare. We need immigration policies that preserve the health, dignity with a multinational policy for provision of healthcare through a human rights lens from point of origin to point of destination.

ABSTRACT

Since the 1990s, thousands of Latin Americans have died or disappeared along the US-Mexico border, following the funneling of migration through remote desert regions. The families of missing migrants face long-term "ambiguous loss," a lived experience in which a loved one is physically absent but psychologically present. Mexican relatives of the missing in Arizona and Sonora report that these losses produce deep emotional suffering along a timeline - worrying about the crossing, learning of the disappearance, beginning to search, and finally, coping with the long-term impacts of unknowing. Close relatives experience embodied health effects including headaches, insomnia, anxiety, depression, and chronic disease.

Resultados: Se encontraron cambios en patrones del gasto alimentario a nivel nacional y regional. Aumentó la proporción del gasto y de su frecuencia en bebidas no alcohólicas, alimentos preparados, comidas fuera de casa y cereales. Disminuyó la proporción del gasto y de su frecuencia en aceites y grasas, frutas, vegetales y azúcares y mieles. Conclusiones: Los cambios detectados pueden estar relacionados con transformaciones políticas, económicas, sociales y culturales manifestadas en las últimas décadas.
