When Hank Aaron and other African American leaders invited reporters to watch them receive COVID-19 immunization shots on Jan. 5, the baseball legend said he did so to help spread the word to millions that the vaccine is safe.
“It felt good,” Aaron said afterward at the Morehouse School of Medicine, where the event was held. Now, just over two weeks later, public health experts and some of the Black leaders with Aaron that day worry that an event that drew so much publicity could inadvertently serve to undermine confidence in the vaccine. Within minutes of news breaking Friday morning of the baseball great’s death, those with doubts about the vaccine turned to social media to try to draw a connection to Aaron’s recent immunization.
The politics entered the Medical field with Covid vaccines. The politicians are not helping the patients, the hospitals or the flow of information. So please get out and keep your comments private. Just a thought.
