trust wypipo on medical matters (or on practically anything else, for that matter, but at this point it's the medical matters which is hurting everyone.) After the Tuskegee syphilis studies, Henrietta lacks, not to mention decades of doctors taught in med school things like black people don't feel pain the way white people do - I'd be distrustful too.

In other words, once again, the behavior of white people over many years is killing people of color.

Because trump was involved and he cares nothing about anyone's life. But then there came a point where there were millions and millions and millions of people who got vaccinated and didn't die from the vaccination that adds credence to it.

But totally get your points one good thing I've noticed is that when I go out somewhere like the grocery store, the people who are still wearing masks are black.
