MIAMI, FLORIDA – APRIL 17: Volunteers, health care workers and doctors participate in a protest against what they say is the city’s and county’s poor response to helping the homeless during the coronavirus outbreak on April 17, 2020 in Miami, Florida. Dr. Henderson and several group organizations are helping the homeless by providing tests, protective masks, gloves, tents, and other items to the people in need. The groups are calling on local officials to make hotels, dorm rooms and other properties immediately available to house people; cancel all rent and mortgages; halt all evictions and end the arrest of homeless people.
