@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 unumfund.org/vaccine-equity…

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

@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.

@LordEmilee what do you/yall think of this nytimes.com/interactive/20…

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 @emilee_lord/well-intended-policies-block-bipoc-communities-from-representative-vaccination-315402ae01ad" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@emilee_lord/w…
