Maxmen A. Coronavirus Is Spreading Under the Radar in US Homeless Shelters. Nature. 2020 May;581(7807):129-130. doi: 10.1038/d41586-020-01389-3.

This article discusses the issue of lack of supplies and resources available to the homeless population, which in turn can cause COVID-19 to spread easily. More tests and healthcare resources need to be available for the homeless populations. New forms of shelter should be available such as hotels and dorms so people are about to social distance. —Clare Petrie, NCEAS
