Our Latinx & black communities are are the lifeline to many. We are not only stepping up but losing our lives in our sacrifice. @Surgeon_General would be better served providing medical
advice than perpetuating lies & tropes in the face of truths and statistics. https://twitter.com/yamiche/status/1248679421122396162

Latinx, blacks & other communities of color on the frontlines are being devastated in #COVID’s wake, all Americans are not being asked to sacrifice equally. @Surgeon_General lack of empathy to lives lost & instead a seeks to create division among us in times of crisis is obscene.

#COVIDー19 exposes America’s social inequities when a mother does not have the option to shelter in place but sacrifices her life to a minimum wage job w pride to put food on the table. @Surgeon_General lacks empathy, should be ashamed and should be fired.

Latinx, Blacks & communities of color are part of the solution during #COVID - we are essential personnel. @Surgeon_General is not. From the moment he spread misinformation preventing Americans to stay safe - to now peddling racist tropes, he is part of the problem. #FireJones

So we’re all clear: Latinx & Blacks are over indexing in #COVID mortality bc they’re deemed essential workers, on frontlines so that others of us can shelter in place.

Our communities are stepping up under gross inequality & paying ultimate price. @Surgeon_General’s depravity
