Do blacks not get other vaccinations such as measles, hepatitis, flu, etc?

Are blacks that paranoid about getting COVID vaccination because they have some kind of fear? Are blacks under vaccinated for measles, hepatitis flu,etc,relative to whites because of fear?

They’re more scared of the Rona than whites so their stance on the shot is a bit perplexing.

36% of black people said they wouldn’t get the vaccine against 21% white and Latino

many blacks in inner cities use the emergency room as their primary care doctor, amd use the emergency room as a pediatrician for their kids.
does that answer your question?

Maybe they, like many other people of other races, realize this particular vaccine is an experimental prototype and was pushed into production hastily.

A huge percentage of black Americans think white people are the devil and white peoples’ default mode is racist motivated exploitation of blacks whom white people view as inferior. Certain isolated, historically ambiguous scientific and medical treatment of blacks by U.S. government operated programs are well known in black America, even if the true facts are embellished, muddled and somewhat confused. It is enough to make many of them suspicious whether warranted or unwarranted. I personally thought that about 15 years ago our country had turned the corner and that a very large black middle class and a significant upper middle class was emerging and much of the damage done by the Democratic party’s welfare state was going by the bye. Unfortunately, racial politics was given new life fomented by hordes of ignorant people, black and white.

This appears to be a legitimate issue. I work in law enforcement where the vaccine is now available to age 50 and over officers. We have several black officers who are not interested in taking it. I was first to get it.
I asked one who said they aren’t taking a vaccine that Trump made.
True story.

This must not have anything to due with disinformation tv network news.

I remember some segments of the black community celebrating COVID as a white personal disease. Fact

We have defensive tactics training scheduled for April. That’s hand to hand fighting skills in a mat room. A lot of these officers will not be vaccinated.
I told the management that this is reckless and they’re going to end up taking out an entire office in a super spreader event. Only a handful will be vaccinated by then. About 25% have had Covid already.

Of course I can't speak for the entire black community, but most folks generally don't have a problem with other vaccines. Black folks don't make up your usual anti-vax crew.
It's just this Covid vaccine that has everyone spooked. Combine fears from the Tuskegee experiments along with the Polio vaccine debacle back when. Add along with that the vaccine did come about fast compared to some vaccines in the past.
It's not surprising that black folks are hesitant for the vaccine. What's surprising is I have literally seen some people who are scared to death of Covid, but are also scared to death of the vaccine. I don't understand that mindset at all.

Disinformation is incredibly dangerous. I completely understand being hesitant to for the virus. But I've seen people link bs articles that claim the Death #s from the vaccine are 5000+ at the moment

It’s not like the government has ever done terrible things to black people. Seriously, it’s not surprising that many black people distrust the government’s assurances about safety. The real question is why so many of them vote for more government interference into their lives

Seriously.
Be black, read about tuskegee experiment. Try to convince yourself the government is there for you.
There's your answer

Can we not say that perpetual COVID may serve their interests? No school, getting checks periodically, mail in voting, excuses for a lot of other stuff?

Leftist handouts making people depend on the government created that problem.

I'm in a similar boat. Only about 30% took the vaccine the first opportunity. It looks like no additional people will take it now.
