Yes, and I think we need to conduct studies on drug use and virus resistance. Jackson Parish would be excellent for that case study.Quote:

That's the lefts' excuse narrative. The real reason is ignorance, not current or past racism. You white guilt types will always be able to go back to a time when...Quote:

Maybe they felt the need to get out publicly because there is some hesitancy in the black community, I don't know because I have not heard one person say that. Besides, their message has been clearly aimed at everyone. Not once have I heard one of them say "we blacks" need to get vaccinated. It's always been "everyone" should.
Lots of Whites are afraid to take it, but not because the are white. Like the blacks who are afraid, they have been indoctrinated and are ignorant regarding the shots.
I haven’t heard anything locally from any authority figure that black people need to be afraid of the vaccine. Haven’t seen anything nationally either. What sources are there that explicitly discourage POC’s from getting the virus.
Many of the churches. Particularly the churches that instruct them on who/how to vote.Quote:

At some point, after the vaccine has been available for a sufficient time, ALL restrictions need to be lifted. No more masks, no more limits in public places, etc...and if someone has refused to get vaccinated, oh well, so sorry, so sad. Take your chances and STFU if you die from the China virus.
I generally agree. An exception would be the spread of a new variant that the new vaccine doesn’t work for. The odds of that happening gets reduced the faster the vaccine is pushed worldwide and the more we limit the spread now.Quote:
