Fucking Fox, fueling race rage in the cult.
The headline on the front page says Biden will prioritize RACE in administering COVID drugs.
This was the top headline, top of the fucking page, at 7:30 ET but by the time I got writing it had been moved down into the list. Anyway,
The headline on the article drops the capitalization of RACE.
Biden administration guidance prioritizes race in administering COVID drugs
The first three paragraphs in the article hammer that race or ethnicity is given preference.
Guidance issued by the Biden administration states certain individuals may be considered "high risk" and more quickly qualify for monoclonal antibodies and oral antivirals used to treat COVID-19 based on their "race or ethnicity."In a fact sheet issued for healthcare providers by the Food and Drug Administration, the federal agency approved emergency use authorizations of sotrovimab – a monoclonal antibody proven to be effective against the Omicron variant – only to patients considered "high risk."The guidance, updated in December 2021, says "medical conditions or factors" such as "race or ethnicity" have the potential to "place individual patients at high risk for progression to severe COVID-19," adding that the "authorization of sotrovimab under the EUA is not limited to" other factors outlined by the agency.
In the fourth paragraph they add that other high risk also get the same treatment.
Older age, obesity, pregnancy, chronic kidney disease, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease are among the multiple medical conditions and factors associated with what are considered "high risk" individuals by the FDA.
The actual document is here. FACT SHEET FOR HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS : EMERGENCY USE AUTHORIZATION (EUA) OF SOTROVIMAB
Although it does mention race, it certainly doesn't prioritize it like Fox is screaming.
The page in question.
Fuck Fox News!
