New York State: White people told not to bother trying to get monoclonal antibody treatment because there is not enough to go around

2022-01-01

Look for a flood of medical tourists hitting all the surrounding states, followed by an increase in the flow of emigrants. Or just an increase in self-identification as persons of colour.

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]

In a memo sent by the health department Monday, white residents were told not to bother trying to get Pfizer's Paxlovid pill or monoclonal antibody treatments

'Non-white race or Hispanic/Latino ethnicity should be considered a risk factor,' the document says in section marked 'eligibility' for the two types of treatments

The rationale behind the move, the org says, stems from 'longstanding systemic health and social inequities' supposedly subjected on other races

Such disparities 'have contributed to an increased risk of severe illness and death from COVID-19,' the health department goes on to state in the bulletin

The bizarre declaration comes as the Omicron variant continues to spread across the country, ravaging The Empire State

#8 #4 It's because black people aren't getting vaccinated. The big news blackout is on this, nobody will report it.

Actually, so long as American Pravda can hammer home The Narrative, they're happy to report on it: Rayciss! Rayciss! Read all about it... Pravda, August 12, "Why Only 28 Percent of Young Black New Yorkers Are Vaccinated"

A construction site safety manager in Queens said that as a Black man, he was more worried about the prospect of being stopped by the police than he was about getting Covid-19.

A graduate student in the Bronx who had not gotten vaccinated said her worst fears seemed confirmed when a vaccine that the government was directing to Black and poorer neighborhoods was briefly suspended over a small number of dangerous blood clots.

And a civil rights activist in the Bronx said he grew suspicious when he heard last year that politicians were prioritizing minority neighborhoods for coronavirus vaccinations.

#7 Well, it's one way to insure the 'white' zombie Donk voter will stay with the party cause in the afterlife they'll still vote Donk.

#5 The vaccine does not work. Not getting vaccinated does not move the needle at all. (no pun intended)
