UPDATE: POSITIVE TESTING MAP FOR MARCH 2020

Harlem Bespoke: A percentage map of positive COVID-19 results in greater New York City shows that Queens, the Bronx and Brooklyn have the largest concentration but north of 125th Street appears to be escalating as far as Manhattan goes.  Some reports mention that people of color may be more vulnerable to the outbreak because underlying health issues such as diabetes, heart disease, lung disease or high blood pressure are more disproportionally found within the community.  Blue collar workers also can not perform jobs remotely from home and are outside for most of the day which may be another contributing factor. With all that said, social distancing does appear to be working and more information outreach to communities most highly affected might also be needed to flatten the curve: LINK
