NC Gov. Cooper: We Want Vaccine Recipients to ‘Look Like North Carolina’s Population’

On Monday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “All In,” North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper (D) stated that he wants to get vaccines into arms quickly, “But we’re also holding our providers accountable that we want those arms to look like North Carolina’s population.”

Cooper stated that during the early part of the vaccine rollout, “we did not hit enough of our people of color in underserved communities. And that’s why, in North Carolina, we created our own database to have 100% of the vaccinations, we will know who those vaccinations go to. Our goal is to get those vaccinations off the shelves and into arms, but we also want those arms to reflect the makeup of our population, making sure that we get our vaccines to black North Carolinians, to Hispanic North Carolinians, and we want to make sure that we do that, and we’re getting help from the feds now, and that has been critical.”
