Peer Review Study
This study used publicly available data on COVID-19 cases and deaths in the United States counties to conduct an analysis that described racial disparities in COVID-19 disease and death and associated determinants. The results of the study showed that counties with higher proportions of black people had higher prevalence of COVID-19 cases and deaths. This study also recommends that county level comparisons can inform COVID-19 responses and identify hot spots to show that social conditions, structural racism, and other factors increase the risk for COVID-19 diagnosis and deaths in Black communities.

Peer Review Study
This article outlines a framework for data collection among communities of color based on a project by local organizations in Canada.
