Very true. There are higher risk populations and it’s not to be racist.
Why is everything racist?! I’m Hispanic. I’ll give him mine. 😂 Since I’m a coconut and should be able to just walk in and get whatever I want, right? 😂
Immune function is going to be a bit different based on race, gender, age, diet, disease processes, and more. Therefore, certain groups of people are going to be at a higher need for the medication.
If a healthy white male walked in wanting the monoclonal antibodies, then they would be given to whoever is higher risk of needing them first. Period!
If the white man was sick, and a “healthy Hispanic or black guy” requested antibodies, then the white guy would get them first. Of course, taking all other healthcare risks into account.
It’s not that “cut and dry,” and as RACIST, as this man in the video wants us to believe.
