[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would love to see those maps overplayed with ones showing numbers of elderly in this city. But that might eff up everyone’s narrative. [/quote] According to the US Census web-site (2019 ACS-5 Yr), the distribution of population age 65 and up by ward is: Ward 1 6,102 Ward 2 8,100 Ward 3 14,906 Ward 4 13,275 Ward 5 12,592 Ward 6 10,373 Ward 7 10,620 Ward 8 7,702 So yes, the Wards with the most people are having the most people sign up for vaccines. But let's try and make this a racial issue.[/quote] Actually, you are demonstrating why this IS a racial issue. By focusing on where the old people are, rather than where the deaths are happening, you are illustrating that not all old folks are equally vulnerable and the need for a strategy that prioritizes risk factors beyond just age.
