Now, they’re reporting that the black American population is hardest hit by WuFlu.

At USAToday: “Black Americans are dying of coronavirus at much higher rates compared with other Americans in some major cities, but most federal officials and states are not keeping track or releasing racial data on coronavirus victims, raising concerns about care for the nation’s most vulnerable populations. As coronavirus cases and related deaths soar in cities with significant black populations, including New Orleans, Detroit and New York, civil rights groups, Democratic lawmakers and the White House have called on federal health officials to release racial data to ensure resources and information reach every community affected by the outbreak.“

(bold emphasis added)

But, guess what…the lower income and poor brackets are always the hardest hit…

…by any flu.

They can least afford (or don’t have access to) healthcare; can least afford a proper daily nutritional diet; and are most susceptible to chronic underlying health problems.

Their low income status force them into inner-city high occupancy low-rent areas, and in any high population density situation as that, contagion rates are at their highest levels.

It has always been thus.

So, why is such attention just now being given to this problem by Leftist media?

Because WuFlu numbers adding up don’t justify Big Government intervention on the order of magnitude we’ve seen to date: they’ll need another narrative to keep it going.

(Hey, these Big Government Lefties will not give up their Top Priority ideal easily.)

Cue the race card. Any discussion of getting the economy back on track by loosening the social distancing and shelter-in-place guidelines will be branded as racist in intent.

But, they have a serious problem if consideration is given as to why these groups are hardest hit, because it will show Democrat policies oppressing minorities are the cause.

Who runs ‘…New Orleans, Detroit, and New York’…? Democrats have, for decades.

You can bet Democrats and FakeNews media will start hammering the race-card…

…question is, will Democrats be held to account…as the underlying cause?
