We assessed trends in COVID-19-related racism and discrimination irrespective of infection status and changes in emotional health and mental well-being outcomes due to experienced racism and discrimination. Using three waves of the Wisconsin COVID-19 Community Impact Survey (2020-2021), we compared demographics of respondents categorized by two mutually exclusive groups: reporting vs. not reporting COVID-19-related racism and discrimination. Using longitudinal logistic-multivariable regressions, we modeled changes in racism and discrimination-induced stress and 4-item patient health questionnaire screening for anxiety and depression (PHQ-4) associated with experiencing racism and discrimination. Prevalence of reported experiencing COVID-19-related racism and discrimination increased among adult Wisconsinites between 2020 and 2021: 6.28% in Wave 1, 11.13% in Wave 2 (Pearson's chi-square Wave 1 vs 2=16.96, p<.001) vs. 10.87% in Wave 3 (chi-square, Wave 1 vs 3=14.99, p<.001).
