This is a burning issue that does need resolving.
However, in the middle of a 1-100 year pandemic in which citizens could benefit from using pulse oximeters at home to spot early signs of deterioration, getting admitted to hospital earlier and having a much shorter stay in hospital, we need to be careful about what messages we send to the wider population.

If the outcome from this is to deter non-white citizens from using these devices, what are the population-level outcomes likely to be?
