Fauci Says Black People Should Trust COVID Vaccine Because an African-American Woman Helped Make It
2020-12-13
[Western Journal] According to the nation’s top infectious disease expert, black Americans should get the newly developed COVID-19 vaccine partly because a member of their race participated in making it.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, made the shocking statement Tuesday in a virtual appearance with the National Urban League livestreamed on Facebook.

The meeting, "Making It Plain: A Conversation with Dr. Fauci," focused on the effects of the coronavirus pandemic on African-Americans and other "people of color."

When asked about the reluctance of the black community to participate in medical trials over mistrust of the government, Fauci quickly moved to shore up trust in the vaccine and the testing process.

While the doctor admitted there is skepticism around the speed with which the vaccine made its way to the American public, he claimed cutting-edge technology cut the development timeline from years to months.

#14   Two of my grandparents were French Canadians from Quebec, so by that logic this means I should hang sheetrock and drink Labatts.

Too funny. Mr. Wife’s mother is from Quebec. Mr. Wife learnt to hang drywall working for one of his Polish uncles, but one of his mother’s brothers was a builder — and his son continued in the business.

#7  Just get LeBron, JayZ / Beyonce and Cardi B to make a PSA and it's a done deal, I mean those are the people that whole segment of society listens to slavishly.

#6  Maybe they could put Aunt Jemima on the box. She is friendly and reassuring, and I hear she is looking for a new gig.

#5  by that logic, they shouldn't get too upset over the whole Tuskegee Experiment since one of the nurses was black.

#3  So then I should trust Fauci because his name also ends in a vowel?

#2  Trump will only be given credit when the vaccine fails or has terrible side effects not detected because it was rushed to the public.

#1  Identity medicine? Would the corollary be refusal to accept the Jarvik-7 or it's follow-ons ?

Apparently no credit can be extended the President of the United States for his heroic efforts with regard to the fielding of the Vaccine.

“It helps a man immensely to be a bit of a hero-worshipper, and the stories of the lives of the masters of medicine do much to stimulate our ambitions and rouse our sympathies.”
