This Detroit News story broke down data that highlights racial disparities in coronavirus deaths and cases. In addition to the graphs reporters used to visualize data, there were interviews with the mayor, health officials and other people involved in local government. I thought the story was effective, but a bit tone deaf as there weren't any regular people interviewed. I think data needs people - not necessarily government reps - to humanize it.
The story I picked is on that precise subject, but for the UK, and I have the same criticism: that there were interviews only with experts rather than those that had caught the virus.
I thought the story was particularly interesting because while it had previously been reported that black citizens were disproportionately represented in the mortality figures, the Times' analysis showed that it was also uneven within the British black community, and deaths among those of Caribbean origin are vastly higher than all other demographics.
