Why is COVID-19 impacting communities of color more severely? Join us for a Q&A session with Dr. Sylvia Rosas and Dr. Kirk Campbell, moderated by Francesca Weaks, Policy and Research Manager at the NAACP. Ask questions live as they discuss the latest updates on the COVID-19 virus and how it is affecting diverse populations, including:

  • Are there genetic and other factors that make communities of color more susceptible to the virus?
  • What can people do to address disparities in care?
