Using data from a larger parent study, we assessed employment, income, education, health insurance, job security, and demographics. Results showed that job insecurity and having children were significantly associated with higher adherence to public health guidelines. Findings highlight the need for tailored preventative measures and stronger public health strategies to support vulnerable immigrant communities during pandemics.
