WASHINGTON (AP) — Donald Trump falsely declared in a weekend rally that public health authorities are denying the COVID-19 vaccine to white people because of their race.
TRUMP: “The left is now rationing lifesaving therapeutics based on race, discriminating against and denigrating ... white people to determine who lives and who dies. If you’re white you don’t get the vaccine or if you’re white you don’t get therapeutics. ... In New York state, if you’re white, you have to go to the back of the line to get medical health.”
THE FACTS: No, white people are not being excluded from vaccines, of which there is a plentiful supply. And there is no evidence they being sent to the “back of the line” for COVID-19 care as a matter of public health policy.
Trump distorted a New York policy that allows for race to be one consideration when dispensing oral antiviral treatments, which are in limited supply. The policy attempts to steer those treatments to people at the most risk of severe disease from the coronavirus.
It says that nonwhite race or Hispanic ethnicity “should be considered a risk factor” because long-standing health and social inequities make people of color more likely to get severely ill or die from the virus.

They are liars. AP CEO is a board member of Pfizer.
Oh horsefeathers. What Trump said is true.
Fact Checks are nothing. Just alternative opinion
Paging Associated Press your plate of crow is ready.
There was a line in Red Storm Rising by Tom Clancy that one man never forgets a slight against the Marine Corps.
I’m that way about disrespect for President Trump.
AP people.
TRUMP: “The left is now rationing lifesaving therapeutics based on race, discriminating against and denigrating ... white people to determine who lives and who dies. If you’re white you don’t get the vaccine or if you’re white you don’t get therapeutics. ... In New York state, if you’re white, you have to go to the back of the line to get medical health.”
Nice strawman, AP! Trump said therapeutics, not "vaccines". AP lies (again).
Was it this article?

So they’re not prioritizing by race. They’re prioritizing by race.
So says the AP.
Trump probably just misspoke about the vaccine. It's definitely the therapeutics here in NYS that are being excluded for whites.
Meanwhile racist AssPress defends the limitation of therapeutics by race.
FUAP.
Yeah. Got the number wrong. Sorry.
Trump shouldn’t have mentioned the vaccine, he sets constantly sets himself up to be bashed by not getting his facts right.
Proof that these rallies scare the sh*t out of the Democrats! For them to even address this, confirms they know these Trump rallies energize the base and potentially draw voters who have buyers remorse over their vote for Brandon!
By admission, they’re saying that therapeutics are being rationed based on race. It should be based on medical needs. Each person is different regardless of race. Sound like the fact checkers are distorting the facts as much as anyone.
They still haven’t fact checked Biden who said in July if you get the vaccine, you won’t get covid.
“The AssPress is the most left wing propaganda organization in the US right now and that says a lot considering how many there are.”
We have a winner. Nudges out The Hill by a nose.
I knew this would happen as soon as he misspoke and said “vaccines” when I knew he was referring to monoclonal antibodies. The MSM doesn’t report on 99% of what President Trump says but just waits for him to make the slightest mistake to pounce.
So the AP confirms libtard racism while trying to smear Trump 🤪
