An unnamed city in Nevada has created social-distancing boxes in an empty parking lot to help the homeless stay healthy from the coronavirus.

What’s going on:

Twitter user Mancino Williams shared a photo from a Nevada parking lot, which went viral across Twitter with thousands of likes, comments and retweets.

She wrote: “Nevada, a state in one of the richest countries in the world, has painted social-distancing boxes on a concrete parking lot for the homeless to sleep in.”

Clark County in Nevada said it will team with the city of Las Vegas to build a temporary homeless shelter at the Cashman Center. The location opened March 28 and will stay open until April 3.
