这项调查（n = 1，356）报告称，波多黎各（PR）的粮食不安全（FI）在COVID-19大流行之前为38%，自COVID-19大流行以来为40%。年收入= 6万美元的家庭的FI几率增加（OR：3.52; 95% CI：1.20，10.36）;收入减少（OR：2.22（1.55，3.18））;参与美国农业部营养援助计划（OR：1.75（1.14，2.70））;较高的食物获得焦虑（OR：1.45（1.29，1.64））;水果味饮料的家庭可用性增加（OR：1.52（1.04，2.22）），而增加果实利用率具有保护作用（OR：0.63（0.43，0.93））。结果提高了需要检查公共关系的FI战略。
This survey (n = 1,356) reports food insecurity (FI) in Puerto Rico (PR) at 38% before, and 40% since, the COVID-19 pandemic. Odds for FI increased for households with annual income =$60k (OR: 3.52; 95% CI: 1.20, 10.36); experiencing an income reduction (OR: 2.22 (1.55, 3.18)); participating in the United States Department of Agriculture Nutrition Assistance Program (OR: 1.75 (1.14, 2.70)); higher food acquisition anxiety (OR: 1.45 (1.29, 1.64)); increased home availability of fruit-flavored drinks (OR: 1.52 (1.04, 2.22)), whereas increased fruit availability was protective (OR: 0.63 (0.43, 0.93)). Results heighten the need to examine FI strategies in PR.
