This Centers for Disease Control and Prevention brief annual report integrates selected analyses on health trends reported online by the Health, United States program. The focus of the 2020–2021 issue is health disparities by sex, race and ethnicity, and socioeconomic status. The report found that substance use is more common in males than females, and that males were twice as likely as females to have had heavy alcohol use from 2015 to 2019.

This report, “Health, United States, 2020-2021: Annual Perspective,” was produced by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
