The meaning of this sentence

"The crisis will affect much more those vulnerable to poverty, that is, low income groups around the $2 poverty line, and perhaps less so for the extreme poor. "

Can someone help me with this sentence?
Does is mean that "The crisis has greater impact on those vulnerable than poverty"? Or does it mean those vulnerable will become poor?
