Yes, Virginia, Everything Is Racist

Many factors may cause an increase in percentage of deaths. Pre-existing illnesses, Closer living conditions. social distancing commitment, hand washing commitment, children and young adults infecting adults. Many work in the service industry and interact with more people. Airport had many from Europe come in. They were crowded together for many hours . Many AA workers at the airport were infected and spread it in their community. Many socialiological, economic and employment have a big influence.

The only thing that is clear, based on statistics, is that vegetarians are immune.

The implication is more that US healthcare inequality is racist.

so you are saying the Hospitals in Chicago are racist?
Or how bout that cities are more densely populated and have a much higher black population?

Black people make 30% of Chicago's population but 70% of the coronavirus deaths so what are you talking about?

Rural chicago is largely unaffected. It's the inner-city that is seeing the high death rates, due to everyone being in such close proximity to one another. Minorities make up the larger percentage of these areas. In the end, it's just math. The entire US map bears this truth out.

What the hell is rural Chicago? Are you talking about like de Kalb county or something?

I meant suburbs, but I'm referring to the area on the peripheries of town where much of the middle and upper middle class live.

And, in case you missed it Mr "Just Math", 30% of the population make up 70% of the deaths. That's disproportionality.

Been to a ghetto or government housing project lately? Lots of people packed together. Police are busting up parties everyday in our city. They aren't doing a good job of distancing themselves, so they're going to suffer accordingly. Most of the nursing community is made up of minority women so I just don't see these people being racist, and they're not coming out saying this...only the statisticians doing this.

You just proved my point for me(30%).. I said cities have a higher black population, you pointed out that Chicago is 30% and that is almost 3 times the percentage of black population in the usa 12%.. so 30% is much higher than the nat avg..

and You made a BS statement that " US healthcare inequality is racist" I guess Chicago is run by racists?

Look up "odds ratio". If the coronavirus death were random, they would be 30% black as well, like the population of Chicago. You're basically trying to insist that the death rate was sampled entirely from a part of Chicago that is 70% black and it's not.

I didnt say 70%, I said a higher concentration of a certain color means they will have higher percentage of sickness. Not to mention there are many pics and videos on the net and news of black people not listening to the "self quarantine" rule.

They had a segment on my local news 2 days ago (think 6abc) and they interviewed black man in philly and asked him why does he think more black people are getting it and he said "They think it wont happen to them until its too late"

What is the Hispanic population is Chicago? what is the ratio with them?

[image deleted]if the health care system in Chicago was "Racist" why don't the Hispanic people have the same amount of corona cases?

Is this the first you've been told that racial inequality hits black populations disproportionately hard?

But I will sum it up like a Black man from Philly just said on on our 6 oclock news.(4/8/20)
He said Black people in his area didnt follow the "self quarantine" rule ..That may have a lot to do with it?
