A look at the experts and the arguments that persuaded a government agency to prioritize 'equity' over saving lives.
In 2015, Dayna Bowen Matthew, the dean of George Washington University Law School, published a paper concerning racial disparities in health care. She traced those disparities back to the Founding Fathers and argued their persistence today reflects the "structural violence" of American society.
Matthew was 1 of 11 people who helped draft the Centers for Disease Control's ethical framework for allocating COVID-19 vaccines. She is also listed as a "health equity" consultant to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, which voted in November to vaccinate essential workers before the elderly, partly on the grounds that the elderly skew white—only to pull back Sunday in the face of outrage from across the political spectrum.
The committee openly acknowledged that its initial plan would result in more deaths than "vaccinating older adults first." But, the panel said, the plan would reduce racial disparities—something they deemed more important than saving lives—because essential workers, unlike adults over 65, are disproportionately black and Hispanic, the two groups that have borne the brunt of the pandemic.
How did the committee reach that conclusion? According to meeting minutes, presentation slides, public statements, and even civil-rights directives, the now-scuttled plan didn't come out of thin air. Rather, it reflects the reductive, racialist worldview that is rapidly gaining ground in education, media, nonprofits, and now the U.S federal government

It’s a trick.
They are just talking about giving vaccines to minorities first so that White people will feel pushed back so they drop their resistance and DEMAND to be vaccinated.
why was the CDC permitted to make and PATENT a
virus which is a WAR CRIME??
and profit from it????

SO TRUE
CDC = CCP...another collective that wants power over the individual.

Dio BUMP!
I wuz jus following orders ALERT
“Wokeness” should be treated as a hate crime. To treat someone differently based on their race, sex or gender is discriminatory. If the left gets to determine what a hate crime is, then so should we.
Correction:
Gender = gender preference.
Thalidomide german mfg still in bizz...Garsdasil girl sterilizer Merck still in bizz...and others
In any vaccination plan, health care providers should be first in line. After that, I am perfectly open to the argument that essential services personnel should get priority over seniors, but using race as the justification is so utterly stupid and malicious that it undermines the case. The elderly can quarantine. Joe Biden should be last in line since he’s hardly been out of his basement in a year.

“evolutionary psychologist”...how clever, eh?
Pfizer animal vaccine spinoff Zoetis recently opened up another facility in CHYna. I know people at the Kalamazoo, MI facility. That’s all I’ll say at this time.
If the CDCs wanted to save lives, why didn’t they release HCQ/Zinc Sulfate and Azithromycin to the public? It has an excellent track record of curing Covid but the patients were committed by the CDC to dying. Since the CDC has the mindset of death over cure, some people are purchasing a 6 day treatment protocol of HCQ to treat themselves.
I've already volunteered to step aside and give up my "white privilege" so a POC can vaccinated first.
If they wish to subject themselves as human guinea pigs to government poison who am I to object?

But then the minorities can also claim they are being used as guinea pigs to see if the virus works or has side effects.
You can’t win when others blame of “racism”.
The poor have always had less healthcare, they relied on Midwives, Wise women versed in herbalogy. The rich relied on quacks, incompetent proponents of Cupping (bleeding) already wounded, cutting off women’s hair to relief a fever, women died in childbirth because of their lack of training. Cupping was even done for fevers. Often killing the patient.
btt
How many of us over 60 got vaccines?
I’m 72, all my immunity came from exposure to childhood diseases. Smallpox the school gave. Family of 6, to poor for doctors or hospitals. Mom was the only 1 who went to have us 4 kids, and for the 2 miscarriages, last nearly killed her, took finding a NON-CATHOLIC hospital to get her TUBES TIED, these were late in reproductive life.
