Stuck between a virus and a cold place: A choice for homeless Americans [PODCAST]

“What form the incoming winter will take depends on the location and status of the COVID-19 pandemic. Each city must find a method that will provide the most relief and assistance for their homeless population. Analyzing the results of the measures already taken by shelters in the country will prove vital to developing individualized intentional plans for others. Finances will have to be the deciding factor on whether a shelter will install an HVAC system, engage in strict lockdowns, tap into the community, or develop a hybrid solution. Whatever the choice, shelters and the cities best act fast, because after all – winter is coming.”

Miracle Diala is a medical student.

He shares his story and discusses the KevinMD article he co-wrote, “Stuck between a virus and a cold place: A choice for homeless Americans awaits.”
