Two major public health experts in Canada have unveiled a shockingly new racist criteria to determine who will receive the Coronavirus vaccine.
According to Akwatu Khenti and Ananya Tina Banerjee, Canada must prioritize vaccinating individuals from black and ‘racialized’ communities first before giving the vaccine to any other groups of Canadians, allegedly because these communities are at ‘greater risk’ from Coronavirus.
As CBC reports:
Two public health experts in Toronto say governments must prioritize vaccinating Black Canadians and other people of colour against COVID-19 because the data shows they are most at risk of contracting the virus.
Akwatu Khenti and Ananya Tina Banerjee told CBC Radio’s The House that failing to vaccinate those communities will not only put them at greater risk of getting COVID-19, but also increases the chance that the virus will spread more widely.
“The reason that Black people have a higher rate of positivity, or higher hospitalization rates, is actually because of social inequities, systemic racism and neighborhood vulnerabilities,” said Khenti, who teaches at the University of Toronto’s Dalla Lana School of Public Health and chairs the city’s Black Scientists Task Force on Vaccine Equity.
“If we use some type of vulnerability index we would arrive at the same conclusion, the most vulnerable should be first in line. Right now, the most vulnerable are racialized health professionals, racialized communities.”

Well, certainly, we have approached this with the most vulnerable in mind, although I’m not sure persons of color are more vulnerable, but assuming they are, perhaps the vulnerability might be more of a product of lifestyle and diet than anything else. I write this as one who is approaching 69 years old with two co-morbidities. Where I live, I am not prioritized.
Well, no racial group should be prioritized over you, but that’s what leftists do in order to pander to identity politics. Perhaps you’re expendable if you’re white.
The best way to stop discrimination is to – STOP IT.
Why do we put up with this? It’s racism.
What about the young congressman and congresswomen, That when Ahead ofThe elderly in the U.S. ?
someone should get Sherri Tenpenny video to all before they agree to be vaccinated. https://benosey.com/qvids/dr-sherri-tenpenny-explains-how-the-depopulation-covid-vaccines-will-start-working-in-3-6-months-159275924

Canadian PM Trudeau does look a lot like US President sleepy Joe Biden!
How about using common sense and you can take your systemic racism and shove it up your ignorant ass. They already have a fair vaccine priority list that makes sense based on humane decency not race, I am happy I am near the very bottom because the first comes infected, health workers, police and fire, those with health conditions, teachers, the very elderly, those over 65 by wait list, and then the young and heathy. Tell me how race determination is anything but something Adolph Hitler might accept race as a justified idea. In fact giving the vaccine to all children first, after infected, is ok too, since they are the most innocent amongst us. These two assholes are plain stupid. People most likely to die should come first the most defenseless, if you put minorities before healthy whites that might be a better suggestion and decent humane acceptable. Since both at bottom of the list in priority. You might fairly as well have differences in vaccine priority centers in cities with priorities over rural less density areas.
I don’t recall hearing anyone explain why minorities are more vulnerable than anyone else. If it’s true, working on the problem should be the priority. Will we just ignore the problems & keep doing the same? I truly don’t understand & if it’s true then we should protect them. I’m 65 & am waiting patiently for the vaccine that I’m not eligible for. Can anyone tell me about the vulnerabilities?

Is this just another liberal ploy? Vaccine availability should not be based on race. I’d like to see the actual reports/statistics on minorities DNA make-up being more vulnerable to Covid or any other flu?
How about thinking realistically! Blacks and immigrants mostly live like a herd of animals. They are always partying and just don’t want to follow any rules! They are already being treated like special people by our government. You just don’t prioritize the nonworking, criminal non taxpaying minorities!
Yes you do!!!!
Especially if it guarantees votes!!!
Its just another way to keep them bought and paid for when it’s time to vote!!!
didn’t know that viruses have the intelligence to differentiate skin color pigments? Apparently humanoids filled with hatred and racial prejudice are no better than viruses.
On a site called “American Action News” the story is all about Canada.
Minorities are more vulnerable because they work in jobs that cannot be done from home so they are exposed to more people/virus spreaders.
I refuse to get the swab test let alone the vaccine. Do your research and you’ll understand the facts…VERY dangerous.
More PC nonsense. Distribution should be prioritized only by medical vulnerability. No other criteria are needed.
