COVID-19 is further wreaking havoc as it continues to affect more and more individuals and even social groups across the globe. In the United States, Latinos, Asians, and people of color are present and were caught on lockdown when SARS-CoV-2 introduced itself to the public, causing confusion and panic.
Among the minorities, Latinos are severely affected by the global pandemic, and COVID-19 deaths are also a significant toll among their people.
As of February 9, the World Health Organization (WHO) recorded about 2,320,497 deaths due to COVID-19 worldwide. In America alone, WHO notes that about 459,993 deaths because of coronavirus are recorded. Spectrum News 1 reports that in Los Angeles County, COVID-19 deaths among Latinos have surged up to 1000 percent, which is concerning.
