It is distressing that most every ethnic group in the US has great reasons for distrusting the medical establishment.

Campaigns needed to be concerted to ensure vaccines made it to the black and brown communities of the US because:

- we tend to be overrepresented in jobs that required interaction such as nursing, hospitality/service, etc.

- we tend to live in smaller, denser situations

- neighborhoods where we are the majority are underserved by public services

- and we have historical reasons for not trusting the government

Now here is a black doctor censoring covid vaccine data for a political agenda.

The hunger for power and for money are just too much to abide. What is next for Florida?

> It showed that catching COVID-19 could increase the chances of a cardiac-related death much more than getting the vaccine.

This is and was obvious. Keep in mind that they always quoted a high percentage difference in likelihoods because the absolute number of vaccinated people who suffered from cardiac-related death in the one demographic group where that held randomly was around 20.
