CHICAGO, Ill. -- The coronavirus has hit communities of color especially hard. Financially, it’s also taken a disproportionate toll.Ozzy Gamez’s neighborhood storefront looks a lot like an indoor jungle.“Our main focus has been indoor houseplants, tropical cacti, anything weird and exotic, strange,” said Gamez.Co-owned by his long-time friend and business partner Juan Quezada, they own "The Plant Shop."“It feels good to come into work and just put my hands on some soil and just kind of bond with people over something that's very natural, very organic,” said Quezada.For many in the Latino community, a connection to caring and nurturing plants is intertwined with family and culture. Gamez grew up in Belize, surrounded by tropical plants.“When I was growing up, it was kind of all around,” said Gamez. “My grandfather would plant things and grow things, whether it was for the animals he was raising or whether it's for us.”“I am Mexican, so I think that in my culture, it plays a big role,” said Quezada. “My mother always used plants for remedies, even as small as like aloes. I had a little cut, she always used that.”According to the Pew Research Center, the pandemic has hit Latinos especially hard. About 6 in 10 Latinos, 59%, in May said they live in households that have experienced job losses or pay cuts due to the coronavirus outbreak.Many have found solace during the pandemic in reconnecting with plants, returning to their roots.“You start thinking about where you came from and thinking about your ancestors,” said Gamez. “Not only think about them, but the places that were meant for me and I start thinking that kind of links it all. It's plants.”Gamez and Quezada have been fortunate. Business has been good to them during the pandemic.Despite having to limit the number of customers in the store, demand has increased. They’ve had to double their staff to keep up.“Our customers are great,” said Quezada. “They completely understand whether they have to wait outside for a second or you have to sanitize your hands coming in or wearing a mask.”Regulars like Glenn Gallet say it’s all worth it.“The amount of rare plants and things I'd never seen before, things I've lusted after, I spent a lot of money here over the years. But it's all been worth it,” he said.In a time when most could use a little extra care, nurturing another living thing could be just the right medicine. 2410

CARLSBAD, Calif. (KGTV) - Dozens gathered in Carlsbad Saturday afternoon protesting the closures of businesses and schools due to the coronavirus."We got to get our economy going again and we need our businesses and schools open at the same time," San Diego County Supervisor Jim Desmond said.The rally comes as San Diego is seeing progress during the pandemic, eligible to fall off the state's watch list and potentially reopen schools in two weeks.RELATED: Del Mar increases mask enforcement as crowds fill beachesActivists at the Shoppes at Carlsbad say that is too long to wait."The longer this pandemic and the shutdown occurs, the more likely some of these businesses are never going to reopen," Oceanside Mayor Peter Weiss said.In the crowd was Juan Velasco, co-owner of Slight Edge Hair Salon in Oceanside. He said one of the hardest decisions he had to make was telling his 12 stylists he had to close down."It was so disheartening because it doesn’t allow us the opportunity to allow them to work and to provide for their families," Velasco said.RELATED: What happens next? San Diego County eligible to fall off of California watch listSupervisor Jim Desmond preached the need to reopen schools and businesses together, saying, "they need to have their kids in school to go back to work, they don’t have time to do the homeschooling ... We want to do it with the social distancing we want to do it with the masks."Desmond gestured to the crowd saying they were promoting social distancing and mask-wearing at the event. Most of the crowd was wearing masks."Right now, there are not enough choices out there, there are some waivers that are working their way through the process but we want to get more schools open sooner rather than later," Desmond added.RELATED: CDC: After COVID-19 recovery, patients are likely unable to spread virus for 3 monthsWhile the shutdown is devastating, last time San Diego reopened for dining in and retail, three and a half weeks later, the county started to see a spike in COVID-19 cases. Then, gyms, bars, and hotels reopened and another huge spike forced a rollback in reopening measures.Businesses lost a huge amount of revenue, after installing precautions to meet county standards and buying perishable products. While it's a risk, business owners like Velasco are hopeful to get back to work."If we get the word on Monday, I bring them back on Monday," Velasco said. "With everything they’ve lost, to give them the opportunity again it would be the highlight of the year for me."But reopening could mean a resurgence in cases. 2584

Cancer treatments can take a toll on the mind and body, leaving many patients feeling alone and isolated.Now, senior citizens fighting cancer, like Mary Hill, are able to escape their hospital rooms through virtual reality.By putting on a pair of goggles, Hill now spends her chemo appointments on stage at Red Rocks Amphitheater as an orchestra plays classical music all around her virtually, while in reality, she receives cancer treatments. “Wherever it is that they want to be that’s not a hospital room, we give them the opportunity to go there,” said Kyle Rand with Rendever, a company designed to reduce social isolation through shared experiences in virtual reality.Rendever is operating in more than 200 locations across the U.S. and Canada, serving seniors by offering them hundreds of virtual experiences to choose from.“The magical part about this is that they get to move from the hospital room that they’re in to all of a sudden being at the Red Rocks, or being standing on the Eiffel tower, or being in Brazil,” Rand said.Medical experts say this kind of distraction therapy is very helpful, especially during the COVID-19 crisis.“In the middle of this pandemic, a place that we’re not able to go to right now and enjoy and everyone loves Red Rocks,” said Nikki Caputo with UCHealth.She says adding VR for patients is somewhat challenging for an already busy staff, but that the benefits are well worth it.“From a mind, body and soul perspective, being able to put on a headset and take your mind to a completely different place, it's quite something,” she said.It's something patients like Hill say helps them escape during this pandemic and ultimately overcome depression and isolation.“With COVID, I don’t go anywhere,” she said. “I’m safe and secure and there’s an outside world that I can think about instead of myself.” 1848
