Because of the smaller numbers of white patients and the fact that white doctors preferred to work in white hospitals, conditions in white hospitals were much better than those in often overcrowded and understaffed, significantly underfunded black hospitals.
由于白人病患较少，而且白人医生偏向于到白人医院工作，因此白人医院的条件远比常常病患过多、医护人手不足的黑人医院好得多。
