Well, the CDC doesn't provide information for the world. I only commented on data that I could read.
The vaccine is whatever you want it to be, for some, it is the end all be all , make them feel better thing to have, for others, it isn't.
In the grand scheme of things, we should have just let this virus run it's course. Sadly, many would have died, (many already have died) , although the end result would have been a stronger population. And a lesser one, which is much better for our natural resources.
That would have been awesome!!! Then we could almost guarantee a variant that would kill the remaining strong. Do not worry, still may happen.

But thanks for the faux outrage. I’ll be sure to buy my hazmat suit.
Faux outrage ? Please explain.
I provided a link to the CDC, and made a comment that it looked like more people were on their way to being vaccinated. You had issue with that. Secondly, I did not see the chart from the link I provided showing how much the rest of the globe is vaccinated. Again, you had issue with that.
It's Monday, I'm foggy from the weekend...so can you explain what your issues are with my statements, I'm having trouble following your logic.
I think Democrats are doing an excellent job of proving what happens when you convince a demographic they can’t do anything without handouts and finger pointing.
We blacks allegedly can’t even get an ID to vote, why would liberals expect us to know how to get a vaccine?
Jen Psaki, mouthpiece for Biden, already stated as much; blacks can’t figure out how to get the vaccine.
Looking at this, it really seems like there is nothing to be arguing about. People are well on their way to being fully vaccinated, if they aren't all ready. They don't break it down by political leaning though...so there is no way to try and vilify a group, I'm sure that will disappoint some.
I totally agree with you. When I was saying “propaganda” I wasn’t talking about the CDC. I was referring to the poster who was making it seem like the low percentage for Blacks is the percentage of Blacks vaccinated, which it is not. The CDC shows the percentage of the vaccinated population that is black. Which now is 13%, which is equal (or slightly greater) to their percentage in the population.
America doesn't do good things for black people. Now all of a sudden people are running around faking concern for black folks and shuffling us to the front of the line for vaccines. It seems suspicious. I went ahead and got my first dose anyway, because it was going to happen eventually, but yeah...i can't black other black people for not being test subjects (again).
Personone tried to explain what the other one meant, but I don't think most were understanding what it represented.

They don't.
They expect compliance to the talking point of the day.
How do you know that? I'm curious about your sources. You might be right or wrong... I just don't know.
I do know rural areas have a lower vaccination rate, for many reasons, but the data isn't broke down by race in rural areas. So are you making assumptions?
Just go off raw numbers. Whites outnumber blacks in this country by a factor of 5.
Black people living in inner city urban areas have tons of access to vaccines. It’s highly likely that they just don’t want the vaccine.
No they really don't want it. My Dr is black and so is everyone that works at that practice, the vaccine is literally at their workplace and they don't want it.
