2/n From @JNCWriter: "African Americans have not forgotten about [Tuskegee],” Dr. Reginald Eadie said. “As we find ourselves...having a vaccine that’s going to market in a fraction of the time it usually takes, it ignites some of those emotions that still exist in the community.”

3/n Among 18-34 year old CT adults who say they trust their local healthcare officials & healthcare workers to look out for their best interests, 68% plan to get a #COVIDVaccine. Among those who say they don't trust the local health system, only 25% plan to take it. @benberkowitz

4/n via @JNCWriter "People need to hear from trusted messengers who aren’t necessarily the folks in white coats or researchers or the state. The state and health care systems need to consider partnering w/ organizations that are trusted messengers in the community.” - @tsdonelson

5/n via @JNCWriter “What we are bearing witness to, in terms of heightened mistrust in Black and brown communities, is rooted in an unfortunate reality, and that is a history of medical malice and experimentation. We [still deal] w/ those experiences in a real way." - @Wizdomisms
