This Marvelous Motivating Monday, we celebrate 5 African American Women: Dr. Kizzmekia Corbett (34-year-old and one of the developing scientist for vaccine), Stephanie Elam (CNN Correspondent who participated live in the vaccine trial for Johnson & Johnson), Dawn Baker (Savannah, Georgia Anchor Woman 1st American who took Moderna phase 3 trial in JULY 2020), Dr. Chester (Dr. in NYC administering first vaccine live on MSNBC with Pfizer) and Sandra (nurse taking first vaccine in United State in NYC). This episode is entitled Blacks and Vaccines in American because as we know, and the media keeps mentioning. people of color do not trust medicine. Not just because of the Tuskegee Experiment, but also because of the inequality of medical care. These five women explain why they decided to get involved with the vaccine process and their hope that people of color can trust the new medical community, as well as holding the media accountable for reporting any inequalities between the medical community and African Americans. Covid19 has harmed more people of color than anyone in America. My Wonderful Women Wednesday will focus on Dr. Corbett as she explains in her own words how she hopes to bridge the trust between people of color and the medical community.
