4. Early retirement probably playing a role

As the article notes, older people are also whiter. During the pandemic, more and more people simply tapped out of the workforce and retired earlier than they had planned.

This was particularly true in health care, leading to shortages particularly in nursing and pharmacy.

It was also a nudge to Boomers who had been staying in the workforce longer than their parents.

So it doesn't particularly surprise me. A younger workforce will be less white.
