A new COVID-19 mobile testing site opened this week at Charles R. Drew University of Medicine and Science in South LA. The site will also collect data on the ethnic and racial breakdown of who is getting sick, who is being hospitalized, and who is dying. Early data suggests that the black community across the country is being particularly hit hard.
