Health officials encourage minorities to get COVID-19 vaccine – Welcome to Wyandotte Daily!

Health officials encourage minorities to get COVID-19 vaccine Health officials and organizations, including Health Forward, are trying to encourage minorities to get COVID-19 vaccines when they become available. Qiana Thomason, president and CEO of Health Forward, said at the University of Kansas Health System news conference Wednesday morning that there was a history of distrust among black and brown people because of past unauthorized medical tests on them, and because of current misinformation that continues to create bias and inequities in providing care. Thomason said there were many examples of discrimination in health care against people of color. For example, a false idea has been promulgated in some medical circles that black people have more pain tolerance, and they do not, she said.

Missouri’s first COVID vaccine doses are on the way. How do you get people to take them? By Tessa Weinberg A month later, in a revised version of the report, the paragraph was gone. Instead, the updated plan featured a new section that targeted how the state would combat misinformation, complete with a website promising a page dedicated to “myth busters.” The revisions came after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s feedback was incorporated, scaling the state’s original 111-page Oct. 11 report down to 105 pages when it was revised Nov. 11. Lisa Cox, a spokeswoman for the Department of Health and Senior Services, said the paragraph was removed, “because we did not have data to fully support the statement.”
