black people are more suceptible to covid and the vaccine cuz of their sickle cell disease

Hmm. Did not learn about that yet, but could certainly be a factor.
I thought it was the low vitamin D levels, due to their skin.
And obesity also seems more common.

they actually get more vitamin, as darker skin absorbs sunlight more

It appears to be more complicated.

Conclusion: This study suggests that skin pigmentation negatively influences vitamin D synthesis.

They are at higher risk of diabetes as well which then increases risk from covid.

It’s one in 13. Are they only giving to sickle cell victims or using that as a blanket statement for racism.

I think it's really more than that, they all have it though some not as bad, but covid makes things worse for the heart and blood system.

    Greenwald isn't a vaccine skeptic. He's eaten the blue bill when it comes to vaccine safety.

    He just sees how government believes a "life saving" vaccine should be unequally distributed by race, and that doesn't sit well with him.

    Personally, I'm fine with the Democrats using inner city ghettos as guinea pigs to test their poison on their fellow Democrats. Appropriately, the blacks in those neighborhoods are one of the most vaccine skeptic groups in the country, since they still remember the Tuskegee experiments when the government used black people to test experimental medicine.

    Let me guess. Whitey doesn't get it.
