Breitbart’s got the story that the Department of Health (DOH) in New York State is advising clinicians that a person’s race (as long as it’s “non-white”) is to be considered a medical condition for the application and use of new oral COVID treatments. It’s obviously racist to deny treatment to people based on the color of their skin. It’s also pretty racist to say that being a person of color automatically means you’re somehow less physically capable of combating the disease. It’s almost like the state is saying here that white people have a superior immuno-defense system.<\/p>\n

Here’s the relevant part of the DOH’s directive<\/a>;<\/p>\n

From Breitbart<\/a>;<\/p>\n

New York state\u2019s Department of Health (DOH) announced recently that non-white people should be prioritized over white people for anti-viral pills in short supply.<\/p>\n

The DOH announcement, dated December 27, said limited supply of oral antivirals will \u201crequire providers to prioritize treatment for patients at highest risk for severe COVID-19 until more product becomes available.\u201d<\/p>\n

Under a list of eligibility requirements for oral antiviral treatment, it said one requirement should be \u201chave a medical condition or other factors that increase their risk for severe illness\u201d and that one risk factor is being a \u201cnon-white race or Hispanic\/Latino ethnicity should be considered a risk factor, as longstanding systemic health and social inequities have contributed to an increased risk of severe illness and death from COVID-19.\u201d<\/p>\n

The announcement also linked to a separate undated DOH document on prioritization that contained the same guidance.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
