2/ The less economic advantage there is, the less access to healthcare, less access to higher education, less access to good fresh food, and more living at the effect of environmental toxins.

3/ So what’s important to realize is that greatest suffering among African-Americans was not created by Covid so much as reflected by Covid. Important to realize this because otherwise, when Covid is done we’ll think the problem has been handled.

Also there is no alternative to getting exposed, you need public transportation, hands on work with no benefits.

I know this is true, but it's a lot more fun to believe that COVID-19 is deadly to Homo Sapiens, the 1st humans, while people with majority Neanderthal DNA are immune. Explains why our black brothers & sisters are dying & the cavemen in DC & those protesting to open now aren't.

What do access to healthcare, access to higher education, and access to good food have in common? None of these things protect people from contracting communicable diseases.
