SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Jan 22 – NYC Mayoral candidate
Andrew Yang is suggesting cold
storage of COVID-19 vaccine in
under-used refrigerators in
bars and restaurants, and even
ice cream
trucks.
Yang held a press
conference on January 22,
along with Bronx Rep. Ritchie
Torres and Queens
Assemblymember Ron Kim and
others. Inner City
Press asked Yang how his wider
COVID-19 plan would apply to
courts and prisons.
Yang acknowledged
the problem(s), and urge
increased pre-trial detention.
Video here,
from Minute 36:23.
Ron Kim spoke
moving about his elderly
father who had a kidney
removed for cancer still not
being able to get on any list
for the COVID vaccine.
This while,
for example, UN Secretary
General is bragging about
being poised to get his
vaccination all the while
saying he is not getting
special treatment.
Inner City
Press has asked, but has
gotten no response from UN
spokespeople Stephane Dujarric
and Melissa Fleming. See Inner
City Press Periscope video
