Ten more people in the city of St. Louis have died from the coronavirus, and nine of them were black, continuing an alarming trend that's being seen in many places across the U.S.
The St. Louis Department of Health announced late Monday that a woman in her 50s was the only white resident among the latest victims. The black victims ranged in age from their 50s to their 80s. Thirty-two of the 40 people in St. Louis who have died from the coronavirus were black.
The city’s population is about evenly split between blacks and whites.
