Fauci: COVID vaccine rollout needs to prioritize people of color
Axios ^ | 13 mins ago 1/27/21 | Shawna Chen

Posted on 01/27/2021 7:09:26 PM PST by conservative98

Infectious disease expert Anthony Fauci highlighted the need to address racial disparities in the COVID-19 vaccination process, per an interview with The New England Journal of Medicine on Wednesday.

What he’s saying: "I think that's the one thing we really got to be careful of. We don't want in the beginning ... most of the people who are getting it are otherwise, well, middle-class white people."

"You really want to get it to the people who are really the most vulnerable ... you don't want to have a situation where people who really are in need of it, because of where they are, where they live, what their economic status is, that they don’t have access to the vaccine."

Which people of color get priority Fauci? The browns?
The reds? Is darkness of skin color a factor? That is, would Michael Jackson get pushed to the back of the bus?

This overt racism is outright BS and it also backfires because the minorities think Fauci is targetting them to be the guinea pigs for the whites - which is why they’re “getting it” first.

It’s INSANITY.

Kind of like the Tuskegee experiments with syphilis.

Amazing that they brought up the Tuskegee experiement.

I do not think that was on anyone's mind.

In my work, I find that many black folks of ages are scared of the China Virus due to media.

Old, White, liberal folks are next.

ALL medical people I meet just shrug their shoulders at the scare/hype.

Did I ever mention Fauci is a two-faced, self-absorbed, self-adoring little twerp? No offense but he is.

This is racism.

The oldest people of all races should get the vaccine after medical professionals. That is how they are doing right now anyway.

Government workers should be last.

My guess is too many White Leftists are jumping the lines and pissing everybody off. In California, the White Elite Hollywood folks are jumping the lines to get it first. And all the White Democrat Leaders have had the vaccine. Funny, Democrats call Republicans racists while they screw over the minorities

Let’s suppose they do. The government will then be accused of using them as guinea pigs.

Dr. Dimone Gold, who may or may not be a kook discussed this in a recent video. She claims that there is no evidence that COVID is more sever for people of color then non. She states statistics for Asian and Africans, in Africa. She then claims that the government is using the terms racial justice to promote the brown skin minorities to take the experimental vaccine. According to her, the drug is yet to be proven safe and the government is once again using minorities as guinea pigs. Something to think about?

I worked with a black woman in her late fifties who actually was born in Tuskegee.

When she used to mention the tragic story I was the only one who had ever heard of it and knew the details of what it meant. Over I think 9 years no one recognized the incident when she brought it up to them. Younger ones definitely had no knowledge of it.

Get off this colored shit ... !

They don't exist.

No human in America refers to themselves as colored.

And covid doesn't overly target blacks ... Sickle Cell Anemia does, though.

But Saint Fauci says, “They keep coming back and saying the history of Tuskegee. History of Tuskegee. History of Tuskegee!”

"Saw this on CNN at the gym (I go to LA Fitness, they have all news channels 24/7. So annoying.) I felt very chilled watching Anderson Cooper yammer about how people of color (blacks and Latinos combined) were not getting the vaccine at the rate whites were..."

I\m white, they can have my dose. I'll go to the back of the line.

You know, they pointed the finger at Trump for four years,
and three back at themselves.

This guy is a racist, plain and simple.

People with darker skin color usually have lower vitamin D levels, and as a result are more vulnerable to the Wuhan virus. That could be easily remedied by supplementing vitamin D-3 for 3 cents per person per day, but that wouldn’t make any money for Fauci’s pals in Big Pharma.

I was an early supporter of Fauci. Now I consider him the peacetime equivalent of a war criminal.
