Black and Latino patients are twice as likely to receive no pain medication as whites for the same painful long bone fractures because of stereotypes that black and brown people feel less pain, exaggerate their pain, and are predisposed to drug addiction.
黑人和拉丁美洲病人， 不被给予止痛药物的几率是白人的两倍， 即便都要承受同样的长骨骨折的痛苦。 这都是因为一种成见， 认为黑人和棕色皮肤的人 痛感相对更弱， 而且会夸大自己的痛感， 或者是容易对药物产生依赖性。
