Educating Latino's on COVID-19, challenges with remote learning
NEW YORK CITY (WABC) -- The coronavirus pandemic forced schools in our area to close and students to learn from a distance.
Keeping children engaged has become a challenge in a remote learning environment.

Most of the children in her class only speak Spanish.
Also, delivering food to families in need during the pandemic includes many undocumented immigrants.

And, a recent coronavirus survivor is also a doctor on the frontlines.
Dr. Johanna Contreras from Mount Sinai Hospital wanted to share her story with us to help educate the Latino community, a high risk group, about protecting themselves, especially as we approach a slow re-opening of New York City.
