college of medicine. doctor redlener, thank you for joining us tonight. doctors aren t being told to give preference to black people over white people when it comes to covid vaccines or treatments, are they? that s racist nonsense, is it not? yes. that s totally this is something that s been part of the trump cult to massively politicize this entire pandemic. it s great disgraceful. the fact of the matter is, doctors are making decisions based on who s at most risk of dying. that s what we re supposed to do. so if a seven year old with covid and a healthy 40-year-old with covid came in and there s limited amounts of treatment, preference is gonna go first of course to the one who is that most at risk, which is the older person. and the case of non whites in america, as blacks, hispanics, people who are of color, those people have a higher rate of dying from the disease. so that s where the preference goes.
