[quote=Anonymous]There needs to be more advocacy and outreach to the vaccine distribution centers. From what I’ve heard, when you go to book an appointment at our local hospital, they ask for your race but it’s just used to report the stats. They could use that to prioritize black/brown people for appointments. As in, ensure a minimum of X% of the available slots to people with color, since we know they are disproportionately affected by COVID. If any of the reserved quota isn’t used by a certain time then open up the slots to white folks. When there’s a will there’s a way.[/quote]
