Unacceptable, but very intentional.

We can not play surprised when:
🔹Phase 1a is 70% White
🔹 Phase 1b (65+yo) are 77% White
🔹 70% of pharmacies are in white neighborhoods
🔹 Black/Brown communities are 2x less likely to have hospital
🔹Registrations require WiFi

#BlackAndBrown Americans basically have to had entered into 2020 with #OneOrganAlreadyFailing before they can qualify for the #COVIDvaccine at this point, aka #PreExistingConditions.

This is #TuskegeePartTwo: withholding a life saving intervention while you’ve studied our deaths
I’m tired of America trying to act shock that Black people die at higher rates and younger ages when your policies INTENTIONALLY set it up that way.

I refuse to play dumb in 2021.

Each specialty needs a DEI Officer. One that analyzes data for bias & engages in strategic planning to augment practices to include a health equity lens. There needs to be accountability of such efforts w/ standardized metrics for providers & depts alike. Time to fix the broken.
We KNOW the problems. We’ve reported the same death rates & disparities for generations on end. We don’t need to hear more numbers. We need to implement solutions. Every single physician, nurse, & provider should have a report card giving outcomes along lines of race & gender.
The department should also have the same report card of their collective averages of those same metrics. Compare them nationally. Every quarter there should be a review. Identifications of strengths and weaknesses of the individual providers and flaws of the system.
