[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not quite the DMV but only 41% of blacks in Baltimore City are vaccinated. They make up 65% of Baltimore's population. City voted 90+% for Biden. Pretty sure they're not Trump voters. It's not an equity issue as some of you want to pretend. They just aren't getting vaccinated because they won't get vaccinated. There's no shortage of vaccines anywhere. [/quote] Any why is this? Distrust. How do you overcome distrust? [b]Boots on the ground from people of a similar background and race, reaching out and providing facts and rationale. [/b]It’s hard work. Typing on a blog site won’t help. [/quote] DC has been doing this for months now. It's not working. The only thing that is going to work is making vaccinations completely mandatory for everything -- going out in public, receiving benefits, etc. -- just as it's mandatory for kids to be vaccinated to go to school. Unless things turn around in a hurry, we're gonna need to implement that. A too-large subset of people both in DC and around the country simply refuses to get vaccinated, and we're all going to suffer because of it.[/quote] Can’t they just up the reward $$ and pay people to be vaccinated? A few hundred bucks per person could go a long way in some of these neighborhoods.[/quote]
