Serious? That was almost a hundred years ago.
In any case, if that’s what it takes to be excused from taking the vaccination, I now identify as a Tuskegee incident survivor, extremely dark skinned person of color.
No, it wasn’t. 88 years ago. Started in 1932. The “experiment” lasted 40 years which takes it up to 1972. Black people have not forgotten.
That IS why they are nervous. That is most likely why the Surgeon General mentioned that people if color worked on the vaccine. Nothing to do with racism except for the memory of the horrid, racist experiment.
