Pittsburgh, August 17 (RHC)-- New data is coming to light about how the coronavirus pandemic is disproportionately impacting people of color. 

According to the CDC, 14,000 pregnant people have tested positive since January.  Nearly half of them have been Latinx. 

A new study by the University of Pennsylvania found Black and Latina women are five times more likely to be infected than white women.

Meanwhile, Time magazine reports ICE, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, is still detaining 120 children despite a court order to release them due to COVID-19 concerns.
