Nearly one-third of women and men and two-thirds of the labor camp men surveyed said they had no health-insurance coverage.

Screening for prevalent and treatable cancers was low. About 30 percent of women had not received a Pap test within the past year and about 40 percent of ageappropriate women had not received mammograms within the past year. About 87 percent of the men in the labor camp surveyed reported binge drinking, defined by having five or more drinks in one setting; 79 percent reported drinking more than one drink per day. Men were more likely than women to smoke, have high alcohol use, have poorer diets (eat more red meat and fewer fruits and vegetables) and report poorer dietary habits (such as not trimming fat from red meat or removing skin from chicken, using lard or meat fat in cooking).
