CNN and the New York Times have both run pieces claiming that Covid-19 is affecting black Americans disproportionately because of racism.the only people who repeat the partisan spam that the media is creating the impression that this virus is racist are people who are completely ignorant of much of what is common knowledge within the healthcare field, like yourself.
The coronavirus pandemic is hitting black and brown Americans especially hard on all fronts | CNN
Covid-19 has only magnified the systemic inequalities that persist in the United States. And nonwhite people, especially African-Americans, have been disproportionately affected.

We know why Covid-19 is killing so many black people.

It’s not a great leap to the idea that the virus itself is racist.
