    Whites get to the back of the line

    Whites get to the back of the line you're not important in the scheme of things

    Every US state has been advised to consider ethnic minorities as a critical and vulnerable group in their vaccine distribution plans, according to Centers for Disease Control guidance.

    As a result, half of the nation's states have outlined plans that now prioritize black, Hispanic and indigenous residents over white people in some way, as the vaccine rollout begins.

    REVEALED: Every single US state is being advised to consider ethnic minorities as critical groups for vaccination with HALF prioritizing black and Hispanic residents over white

    Half of US states mentioned racial equity in their plans for vaccine rollout
    Of these, 12 states specifically mention efforts to 'reach diverse populations'
    California, Louisiana, New Mexico, North Carolina, and Indiana are among those who have listed equity as a 'key principle for vaccine distribution'
    New Jersey, California and Kansas will focus on improving access to the vaccine by targeting transportation issues. New Mexico will focus on Native American communities
    Many states will be focusing on their communication to black communities who have shown in increased hestitance to take a vaccine

    In the US, black and Hispanic people are almost three times more likely to die from Covid-19 than whites

    Some minority communities are not unlike the old in having higher than average Covid mortality.

    In that respect it's not all that different than prioritizing nursing homes, right?

    The point is, it's not being done purely as a feel-good. Deploy the vaccine where it stands the best chance of making a difference.

      What do the demographics show about deaths?There's your critical path to recovery. This doesn't take a black belt certification to figure out.

          Yes, the article discusses distribution.

            Oohh, I was waiting for that. So they're going to wreck this like they did AIDS.
            If I should die before I wake...great,a little more sleep.

              From what I've read this plan may need some spin after the side effects become more widespread.

                If one group is more susceptible than another group, it makes sense to direct vaccine more toward the group that is more susceptible. Sincerely. bruce.

                  The Black community has suffered, a lot of it due to Democrat policies that keep them down in order to secure votes. The Chinese Virus has been rough on the community. Vaccines could help save many lives.

                    What policies specifically disenfranchised Black voters this election year?

                    Narrow it down to Atlanta, Detroit, Philadelphia, and Madison if it's easier.

                      Who said anything about disenfranchisement? They want the Black community voting, and voting blue only. Since LBJ they've made sure of it, passing policies that keep folk stuck in a cycle of government handouts. Joe Biden said it himself, "if you don't vote for me, you ain't black." Coming from a man that has proven to be an actual racist in words and by the laws he introduces.

                        Drifting a bit from the vaccine, but the topic of "systemic racism" is apparently important to American blacks these days, and one party is not at all receptive to having that discussion. The other party, perhaps imperfectly, expresses a willingness to have that conversation. So those voters choose lesser of two evils.

                          The welfare system is systemic racism.

                            You live in Arkansas, a fairly Red state. You have roughly 500 people in Crawfordsville, AR from the census.

                            Republican Governor. Tom Cotton and John Boozman are your Senators, both Republican. I don't see your complaint. However, if the massive amounts of corporate welfare have you feeling..."stuck in a cycle of government handouts"...perhaps you should vote against such policies. How many black businesses have failed in the last 10 months in Crawfordsville due to poor pandemic response by the state of Arkansas? Channel your efforts on local policies.
