Well, perhaps they can prove or disprove AOC's theory that China virus -literally- racially profiles by targeting Black+Brown people, who therefore "need financial reparations".

AOC is one for the record books with this actual "true news of the week" story I guess...


   AOC Demands COVID-19 "Reparations" For Black+Brown People

      Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has called for coronavirus “reparations” for black and brown people, claiming that “environmental racism” is an “underlying health condition.”

      .. “That’s shameful. No wonder voters think that she is out of touch. She has a golf-simulator and infinity pool and Peloton Cycle room as well as other luxuries while families in the Bronx and Queens are worried about how long the lines are at the grocery store and where they are going to get their next paycheck. AOC isn’t even here to see their desperation and their struggle to survive with her own eyes,” the challenger said.

      .. AOC provided no source to substantiate the claim that COVID-19 deaths were spiking in black or brown communities

      .. Another individual suggested that black bodies “work differently” and that this was also the fault of white supremacy.

      .. Ocasio-Cortez previously waded into the coronavirus debate by demanding the FDA relax rules on blood donation, allowing homosexuals to donate blood despite a greater risk of infection. The rule was subsequently relaxed.
