Reporter Roundup: Latest Help for Unsheltered

Season 1 Episode 123

The April 17 edition of the Reporter Roundup, KPCC reporters break down efforts to house LA’s unsheltered and discuss why parents putting off trips to the emergency room.

KPCC’s Mariana Dale reports some parents are delaying pediatric visits for their kids. The delay in getting vaccinated has some health officials worried about future outbreaks of illnesses like pertussis.

Local efforts are under way to find housing for Los Angeles’ homeless population but not as quickly as some would like, according to KPCC’s Matt Tinoco.

Can you get the coronavirus from tap water? KPCC’s Sharon McNary has the answer.
