That's an argument for improving detection of these diseases which influence clinical outcomes, not for prioritizing care on the basis of race.
- Latty 5y agoThis is true of literally all indicators. Should we also not prioritise on age because we could in theory isolate a ton of age-related factors that are comorbid with COVID-19? Where to draw the line is a hard question, maybe we can do better, I agree there should be more visibility and oversight on these things (just like with algorithmic sentencing and so on), but that doesn't make any use of race as a factor anti-white racism.
