6:22Now PlayingThe latest seven-day-average shows the country's COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations and deaths are on the decline. On the contrary, the pandemic has disproportionately killed people of color, and some areas in the county are still grappling with that trend. BNC Washington D.C. Correspondent Bofta Yimam joins "Start Your Day" with Sharon Reed and Mike Hill to discuss the communities of color being impacted in the country. In Maryland, Black people make up 48% of new COVID-19 cases in the last week. In Louisville, Kentucky, the mayor called the disparity alarming when getting data that showed Black residents account for half of all new COVID-19 cases in the city.
