@unumfund nails it: "The main cause [of BIPOC underrepresentation in vaccinated populations] is bad eligibility policy and historic impacts of social determinants of health—not hesitancy!" #COVID #Vaccine https://t.co/fDi4ElH0WV

@mdhaiti Policy makers must expand access to achieve racially representative vaccination rates.

[Emilee Lord @LordEmilee]

@mdhaiti Data confirms that this a problem of #access. When Black Americans have access to the vaccine (as is the case for healthcare workers), they consistently vaccinate at rates higher than what would be expected given their share of the population.

[Esosa Osa @Esosa_Osa]

This is crucial: "The problem is the CDC’s policy of age-based vaccine eligibility...Early data consistently indicates that BIPOC people who are eligible are getting vaccinated at rates equal or exceeding their share of the population." from @LordEmilee

👋🏾 Did you know? After a history of failing to adequately include all racial & ethnic minorities in trials, the #COVID #vaccines are the 1st to prioritize fully representing the American public. Learn more about the vaccines and trials: https://t.co/kEytLHGFd1 @OurVaccine

My new piece on @CDCgov's new testing guidelines—there is more to it than you think.

Yesterday morning @CDCgov changed its guidance on who should be tested for #COVID-19. @PubDem assesses the shift's impact on #COVIDdata, especially for low-income and middle-class communities.
