You can't MAKE anyone "comply", regardless of race, ethnicity, economic status, or employment.
Unfortunately, NO ONE trusts the mainstream media anymore, as they have become a biased propaganda wing for the left. So when they are actually telling the truth this time, no one believes them. It is a case of the Boy Who Cried Wolf.
I personally think it is silly to not get vaccinated, but then again, I'm just a physician following the research from NEJM and JAMA.
And who is to say they are telling the truth on this? For me, eventually, fear of Delta variant got higher than fear of vaccine, but I don't blame people who didn't have that shift. If I were younger, I would not have.
50 is too borderline to me with Delta being so much more contagious, I no longer felt safe with masks and distancing.
There is a part of me that regrets getting vaxxed. We still don't know long term. Everyone is gambling no matter what they choose.

Actually, its the opposite, its not inner city black people, its rural black people.
Small towns dont have a CVS, Walgreens or Wal Mart, so the nearest place to get a shot is 20,30,40,50+ miles away.

I feel exactly the same as you. I'm 52 and obese (although, 37 lbs less obese this summer, another 30 to go. ) which puts me right in the demographic to get hit hard. Although when my wife had it a year ago, I did not get it, even though we were in the same house.
- No mandates
- Stop the media from showing people getting shots with every virus story
- Stop calling the vaccine "the jab"
- No consequences for not getting the vaccine
Just go off raw numbers. Whites outnumber blacks in this country by a factor of 5.
In many rural areas, where agriculture actually takes place, Latino's outnumber whites and blacks considerably. While I don't know the actual number the school gives you some idea of the racial make up.
Hispanic (86.4%), African American (7.7%), White (4.5%).
I’m not blaming minorities
I’m blaming the liberal media for indoctrinating us with fake news that it’s only white republicans and Trump supporters who won’t vaccinate. The majority unvaccinated aren’t Republicans.
Show us the evidence of rate by political party.
I do not recall be asked my party affiliation when I got my jab.
The only thing we can all seem to agree on is that the surges are occurring in red states.

And in Israel, Iceland, Gibratler. All highly vaccinated countries.

You arent talking about very many towns and definitely not many people.
