Unidos en Salud Team
· In April of 2020, the Latino Task Force (LTF), UCSF, UC Berkeley, and CZ Biohub joined forces to create Unidos en Salud. Their first project offered low-barrier SARS-CoV-2 testing in a Mission District Census track and measured the impact COVID-19 was having on the LatinX community.
