frankv:Conversely, a push to vaccinate Black Americans could be seen as testing out the vaccine on the Black community. So whether they vaccinate or not, the poor and Black once again become cannon fodder, just like Korea and Vietnam.
I don't agree with that. Demographics show that world-wide race has not been a major component yet, because either people were "forced" (the elderly and vulnerable) or were professionals.
it reaches the general population, there may be millions of people already vaccinated, so there's plenty of "cannon fodder."
I'm not saying there's no racial component. White people are more heavily represented in the health-care industry and as politicians.
When it eventually becomes less urgent, and people start choosing whether to be vaccinated or not, we should now have already started education campaigns for groups that have been hesitant in the past, whether its orthodox religious groups to racial groups like African Americans, Pacifica and Maori.
If whole groups of people start opting out, it's just mean all of society pays.
