CNN going after doctors now.

I saw this tweet yesterday and just couldn't bring myself to posting it here, because of its utter, yet typical, race baiting CNN tweet. They went over the top here.

They are implying that doctors are being racist by "caring more" for white babies than black babies.
I'd be willing to bet that, in fact it is the complete opposite.
Due to typical health differences of the mother (which is the cause of the infant deaths) of blacks typically being too young, more obese, possibly less pregnancy care of their bodies, etc. the doctors will have to spend disproportionate amount of time assisting the "problem" cases, whereas the healthier births just go about a quieter routine, with out extra observation.

1) Florida
2) Very few African American premi specialists. Makes the stats irrelevant.
3) I didn’t know we were keeping stats on the race of OBGYNs.

Doesn't make sense. They don't have one doctor per delivery who stays there from admission to discharge, so there's no way to attribute responsibility on the macro level.

Maybe because there is no real percentage of black doctors caring for black kids.

It’s not a decide of research. It’s a decade of data. Pulled from Florida’s Medicare records.

It’s not science, it’s statistics.

And, if you know anything about statistics, then you you know it can tell any story you like depending on your agenda.

There’s no way they accounted for the all the controls and dynamics needed to make this statement. The study is behind a pay wall, so I guess I’ll never know.

It's 2020 baw, we keep stats on the race of everything and everyone. There are entire departments in organizations dedicated to this.

Well, considering planned parenthood was founded by a woman who’s whole intent was to control black populations, I’d say the institutional racism within the abortion industry is well founded.

And I have over a decade of research correlating divorce rates with number of pumpkins ingested.

And much like the study you're defending, it's complete and utter bullshite with zero meaning.
