Due to a successful COVID-19 vaccination rollout by the Biden administration, the country is well on its way to completely reemerging. However, due to substantiated mistrust stemming from historical medical abuse, the Black community is lagging behind other ethnic groups in vaccination numbers. This month, the CDC reported 60% of white people have been given at least one vaccine dose. Black people are at 9%.
To combat this, Facebook recently announced its new ambitious initiatives to combat the barriers some communities face and help them get vaccinated.
On June 30, Facebook’s Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sanberg announced new efforts to drive vaccine equity, including a mobile vaccine truck, popup mobile vaccine clinics in cities across the country, and more.
