The exact impact of Covid-19 on Filipino Americans is impossible to know because death data on Asian American subgroups is lumped into a single category. But exclusive data from a recent survey shows that Covid-19 has had a significant impact on Filipino American mental health: More than half of respondents reported anxiety, depression and worrying, among a number of symptoms. Of those respondents, 85 percent attributed them to the pandemic.

The Filipinx Count Survey, conducted by the UC Davis Bulosan Center for Filipino Studies during the first half of 2020, had about 1,000 respondents and was intended to reflect the experiences of the people who participated, not generalized to reflect the Filipino American population.
