Has anyone tried actually surveying the black community for an explanation?

  I'm not sure that would give an accurate answer. If you were to ask the other big demographic, they'll tend to come up with all kinds of reasons such as "the vaccine is new and hasn't been tested enough" and the like. But at the end of the day, they are biased against it because others in their peer group are against it (or because they feel pressured by "the other side"). This is obvious due to the strong correlation to political leanings. But they try to intellectualize it to be some other reason. They may not be lying, but they may not understand why they had a tendency to be averse to vaccination.

  It is not the black community that has to be surveyed, it is about asking those black people who don't want to take it why they don't want to take it. It is not about surveying everyone.

    I am a "black person who doesn't want to take it." So I can help you: NO. I am also a teeny tiny bit Cherokee. So I can Help you: NO. I don't to explain anything to you because you are not my mother, father or tribal chief. NO. Why??? Because I said so.

  Stay out of our communities, please. Chip and Karen coming around with a clipboard being nosy will not help you understand what you are obviously not capable of grasping. Remember the tshirt : "I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you."
