Who gives a shit? They comprise 8% of the total population. If their rates are lower, their numbers still do not put a dent into the problem. This is just racist bullshit from you.
The amount of black vaccinations is in fact disproportionately lower than the amount of white vaccinations.
Patrick is still wrong because in this instance raw number of cases is more important for likelihood to spread the disease but no, Texas' black population is disproportionately unvaccinated compared to white people if I've read the article correctly.
Number of people fully vaccinated: 13,255,217
Percentage of population fully vaccinated: 45.71
According to the most recent ACS, the racial composition of Texas was: White: 73.97% Black or African American: 12.13%
55% of Texas are not vaccinated if all Black people were Vaccinated 42% would still be unvaccinated.
Only 57% of the vaccinated are white. That means that of the total 100% population only 25.65% are vaccinated white people making almost two-thirds of the white population is unvaccinated and approximately 4x the entire black population. Numbers are rounded up because I was bored.

Does it matter if they are white or black? Surely what matters is doing away with the mad anti-vax, anti-mask, and pro-(Covid is all made up) conspiracies.
I'm not even sure the intent is legit. From what I read, the Texas governor was just asking why the left is dogpiling Republicans over the vaccine when blacks and latino's are anti-vax, and vote Democrat.
Who is a bigger portion of anti-vax isn't the issue, it's the left ignoring the splinter in their eye to point out the toothpick in the rights.

Please show his lie.He said blacks are the biggest portion of unvaxed. And by percentage, they are.
Democrats need to worry about blacks and latino's who refuse to vaccinate, not white trumpers "over there".

Right so its not a black/white thing.
Anti-Vaxers can obviously vote Dems or Republicans.
But a lot of the anti-vaccine preachers do seem to be from the Christian Right. At least thats the impression im getting from the media. Could be false.
