Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's top infectious disease expert, said Sunday the coronavirus outbreak in the U.S. “shone a bright light on our own society's failings” in how the virus impacted minority communities.
President Joe Biden’s chief medical adviser made the comments during an online commencement address for an Emory University graduation ceremony Sunday. He told the graduates in Atlanta that many members of minority groups work in essential jobs where they might be exposed to the novel coronavirus. He noted they are more likely to become infected if exposed because of medical conditions such as hypertension, chronic lung disease, diabetes, or obesity.More Related News
