Summary: 

More from our new US demographic deep-dive on page 4. African-Americans have been 14.2% of cases, 1.7% more than implied by share of population. But they've been 18.6% of fatalities, 6.1% more than implied by population. The case-fatality rate is 6.0%, second highest among racial/ethnic groups (again, Asian-Americans are first).
