zReportage.com Story of the Week #793: TUESDAY July 6, 2021: ‘The INVISIBLE’ by Pulitzer winning Sacramento Bee Photographer Renee C. Byer:’I’m trying to keep it together’ Kristi Phillips and Anthony Slain, homeless with three children, move between a camper and hotels in Sacramento over several months in 2021. The number of homeless families in Sacramento continues to grow. California’s homeless problem has been out of control for decades. Then came COVID-19. The result has been a deadly combination of medical crisis, human hopelessness and bureaucratic red tape as the state, reeling from the effects of the virus, tries to rebound with a plan for the 160,000 homeless people. That number eclipses any other state, and accounts for half of the country’s entire unsheltered population. Sacramento Mayor Steinberg is ready to take a daring step to combat the homelessness crisis engulfing the region. He wants California’s capital city to be one of the first in the U.S. to establish a legal right to housing and shelter. See the plight of a homeless family in Sacramento. Welcome to ‘The INVISIBLE’

Story of the Week #792: TUESDAY June 29, 2021: ‘India’s Covid Nightmare’ by ZUMA Photographers Vijay Pandey and David Talukdar: Countries worldwide wrestling with new coronavirus surges are trying to ensure they aren’t hit by an India-style disaster. They face many of the same risks, including large populations that have shirked restrictions and fragile health systems shaken under the strain. In India, from 3 January 2020 to 29 June 2021, there have been 30,316,897 confirmed cases of COVID-19 with 397,637 deaths, according to WHO. As of 19 June 2021, a total of 276,255,304 vaccine doses have been administered. The current COVID-19 surge, which first overwhelmed Maharashtra state and now is rolling through the rest of India, has humbled those who thought the country had bested the disease. As the country emerges from the world’s biggest and deadliest COVID-19 outbreak, scientists and policy makers say vaccinations will be key to India’s safety, confidence and economic recovery. Welcome to ‘India’s Covid Nightmare’
