COVID NYC Update: Minorities aren t getting coronavirus vaccine at same rate as white people

In addition, 15% were Latino even though they make up 29% of the population. I was dumbfounded, said Jairo Guzman, President of the Mexican Coalition for the Empowerment of Youth in New York City. Guzman believes the problem is two fold - there s a trust issue amongst the community and there s an access issue. For our community it s really an issue of do we trust the government, do we trust who s coming out to us and saying come and get vaccinated, Guzman said. He also believes, there s a lot of misinformation. Many of our families got infected going to the hospital and they were discouraged going to the hospital very early on in the pandemic so now coming to them and saying come to the hospital and get vaccinated, come to a clinic and get vaccinated it s still confusing to them as to whether it s safe or not, Guzman said.
