Black and Latino residents are receiving far fewer doses than white residents in Sacramento County, according to new data released by state officials Friday, reflecting a trend of racial disparity that has come to define the coronavirus pandemic.

Could age rather than race have anything to do with it?

The most common age among whites in U.S. is 58 – more than double that of racial and ethnic minorities

The Tuskegee experiment was cruel and mean. But was done by people who are long gone. Get over it! Stop using Whitey as the excuse for your failures. No one is preventing you from getting the vaccine.

Are there more black and brown Californians, than, there are white?

So if these vaccines turn out to be a health risk whites will suffer more

Study: African-Americans Have Stronger Immune Systems Than Whites

"While both studies concluded that African-American immune systems are more effective at fighting off bacteria and infections, Barriero made sure not to label the immune systems of African descendants as “better” than ones of European descent. The downside to having a strengthened immune system is that leaves African-Americans susceptible to developing inflammatory auto-immune diseases like Lupus and Crohn’s disease, he noted."

Might get very unpleasant when "vaccinated" blacks are challenged by the virus in the wild.

Based on my experience you are correct. Blacks reject the vaccine.

Wise.

My thoughts exactly; seems like a misleading headline.

Black co-workers are generally afraid of the vaccine, and are content to “wait and see”; I don’t blame them (I think the same way).

Here in NJ a couple of people have told me they got it by showing up unscheduled at places where many doses were unused; they don’t “keep”, so after the “preferred people” get them (medical staff, first responders, teachers, whatever), the leftovers are given out on a first come, first serve basis.

A LOT of people being offered this vaccine are declining; in the last couple of weeks I saw a headline that 40% of the L.A. firemen refused it when offered.
