By the Borough: Coronavirus in The Bronx

by Katie Herchenroeder | Mar 24, 2020 | Social (Media) Distancing

Bring Temporary Hospital to the Bronx. Kingsbridge Armory. Numbers are low in the BX bc no access to testing. We are told just to stay home and wait it out. #coronavirus #bronx #asthma .

From: Teacher @ a Title 1 PS in the Bronx

I am in desperate need of help. Many of my students need reading materials they can access online. Can The @NewYorker support PS students by allowing them to access stories & articles during this #coronavirus outbreak?
