CHICAGO — Black coronavirus victims are dying at disproportionately high rates, a problem Gov. JB Pritzker said is due, in part, to “decades, frankly, maybe centuries, of inequality of application of health care to people of color.”
In Chicago, 70 percent of the people who have died from coronavirus are Black, according to a WBEZ analysis. Black people comprise just 29 percent of Chicago’s population.

And of course because the police won't attempt to enforce the rules because who needs another "black live matter" situation.
Were they perhaps denied HCQ?
What a pandering fat f___ he is.
Coronatrina
Damn. Even Chinese bats are racist.
The Chicago democratic run government does not like Black People. I would be interested if their public housing is like New York City.
Pritzker is saying he is still giving unequal treatment to blacks like decades even centuries ago.
“a problem Gov. JB Pritzker said is due, in part, to “decades, frankly, maybe centuries, of inequality of application of health care to people of color.””
no, it’s because too many ghetto blacks refused to socially isolate and were under the mistaken believe that melanined skin-color was protective against C-19 based on fake information echoing in the black social media outlets ...
that and too many life-style diseases like hypertension, heart disease, diabetes, and obesity due to very poor life-style behavior coupled with an unfortunate genetic predisposition for those kinds of diseases ...
With improvements in healthcare delivery to minority populations, We are seeing the fruits of those endeavors in longer life spans. With age comes infirmities such as diabetes, cardiac problems, high blood pressure, etc.. Unfortunately, this is the population that is most vulnerable to CV-19 that results in death.
This will be on the articles of Impeachment, Part II, that the f*ckhead democrats will raise in a few months.
Little racist virus.
You’re probably right... also high density neighborhoods and short term shopping. Then on the negative side the black community is NOT known for thinking the rules apply to them. A toxic combination of community and culture. If this report is true...
A racist virus! Who knew?
They are outside more with the benefit of sunshine and the resulting vitamin D response and strengthening of the immune system.
Oh they’re dying just not of from this virus.
The virus is racist.
It’s going to be like when AIDS was killing gays in the ‘80s...
Strange that AIDS has been eliminated from the conversation about this new virus, are not HIV+ persons immune compromised?
40% Black
28% Unknown(huh?)
28% Caucasian
2% Other
1% Asian
1% Multiple
Not surprising. Blacks in Chicago are less likely to be healthy. So COVID-19 is taking them out at greater numbers.
What?! You commented without RTFA?! ;)
