********. There's a lot of people that don't trust the government. I guess they get a pass too. It has nothing to do with anything other than their party.
Because black people have reasons to distrust the medical community as I previously linked.

Btw it looks like some of that sentiment is changing.Quote:
Although vaccines save lives, vaccine hesitancy — a tendency to avoid or put off getting a vaccine — affects all demographics, especially when a new vaccine enters the market.
Institutional racism and historical inequities in health care may also play a role in vaccine hesitancy among African Americans and other people of color. Incidents of the medical establishment endangering the health or betraying the trust of Black patients and research participants have complicated the relationship between the medical establishment and these communities. A historic lack of diversity among health care practitioners and substandard services and care afforded to patients living with poverty can create enduring negative experiences with medical care.
Vaccine hesitancy among some groups can result from fears that a family member’s immigration status will be under scrutiny, or that the costs of receiving a COVID-19 vaccine will be too expensive. (There is no charge for receiving the COVID-19 vaccines at this time.)

Except black people are vaccinated.
You guys have outdated talking points. Black people have the same % of people vaccinated as white people.
And black people have a higher % than Republicans/Conservatives…
You can’t even use the “but what about” argument for them anymore.
Democrats and Black Democrats are vaccinated though, that’s the point. There’s nobody to make an excuse for, they’ve got the vaccine or are getting it.
Now, what about the white conservatives who not only don’t have the vaccine, but have zero plans to ever get it?
Just a bunch of ****ing hypocrites.
Its absolutely the point. Whether you choose to ignore the reasons why black people have a longstanding distrust with the medical community, that's on you. And if black people are catching up to other races in vaccinations, why aren't Republicans?

Keep telling yourself that its the same.
