White House health advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci is claiming Covid-19 has revealed the “undeniable racism” in the US, as minorities were allegedly affected by the virus at greater rates because of “social determinants.”
The now world-famous US infectious disease expert made his comments during a virtual commencement address for graduates of Emory University.
“Covid-19 has shone a bright light on our own society’s failings,” Fauci said, noting the health disparities that have affected minorities during the pandemic, especially African Americans, Hispanics, and Native Americans.
Many people belonging to these minority groups work frontline jobs that exposed them, even during shutdowns, he argued, and they can be more likely to be infected because of health conditions such as hypertension, chronic lung disease, diabetes, and obesity, conditions Fauci claims can mostly be attributed to social factors like “access to healthcare” and “availability of an adequate diet.”
