African Americans make up a disproportionate number of coronavirus deaths and hospitalisations in the US.
The US is the epicentre of the pandemic with 592,743 cases and 25,239 deaths.

In Chicago, nearly 70% of those who died from coronavirus were African American – while only 23% of the population was black.
