Abstract / Description: 

In the first six weeks of San Francisco’s shelter-in-place ordinance, continued spread of COVID-19 was increasingly concentrated among low-income Latinx people who were unable to work from home, according to results of a community-based screening initiative conducted in San Francisco’s Mission District in late April.

A report of the results, from both nasal swab (PCR) and serological (antibody) tests, has been submitted to a peer-reviewed journal, and was also posted publicly on the medRxiv preprint server on June 17, 2020, due to the results’ importance for public health policy and affected communities.
