Black folks: most of you wouldn’t listen to ANYTHING these MAGAs told you. So why would you take the word of these people who don’t even want you to be able to vote and want to bury your history to elevate myths that erase your struggle, on vaccines and a virus that can kill you?

Do you really think some guy you saw on TikTok and Republican talking heads on Fox “News” are more credible about Black people’s health than the Black woman scientist who developed the Moderna vaccine? Come on, people. Don’t let these anti-vaxxers get you killed by COVID.
I get being nervous about the vaccines. I definitely was! When Trump did his “warp speed” thing to try to get a vaccine on the market in time for the election, my initial thought was “yeah, keep that away from me!” It took @VinGuptaMD to explain on air how they were developed…
to talk me down. He even challenged me to make my vax experience public to encourage people to save their lives. And then there was my even bigger fear: contracting COVID and winding up on a ventillator, or passing it to my godmother, my aunt, my kids or my husband. Case: closed.
I spoke to my main doc who also concurred that there really were too choices: get vaxxed or take the risk of being killed by the virus. No grey area there. He was saying exactly what Dr. Fauci was. And I learned more about Kizzy Corbet…case DOUBLE CLOSED! abcnews.go.com/Health/kizzmek…
So please, please talk to your doctor. Don’t listen to wacky Facebook posts — that’s not genuine medical information. It’s garbage disinfotainment. You’re not going to turn into a magnet from the vaccine, folks. Come on. Seriously?? Get vaxxed and survive this freaking thing.
