Numbers don't add up in story
Hi,
Just wanted to let you know that the numbers in Chanelle Chandler's story (As California's vaccine rollout gains steam, Black and Hispanic residents continue to lag behind whites) don't add up in terms of population percentage. She used 6/38/72% which add up to 116%. Just wanted to let her know.
Thanks.

....and if you read further - No Asians - Indians etc. so the population is likely about 150% or so by using the brilliance of Chanelle Chandler and her numbers.
Further Read the rest of the numbers in this brilliant article:
11 million doses administered;
Of those doses they went to
African American received 3% - (I E that population received 50% vaccination rate)
Latino received 17% - (I E a 43.5% vaccination rate)
Whites received 32% - (I E a 44.4% vaccination rate)
That totals to a whopping 52 % administered doses.
And 48% of the rest of the doses went where????
Ms. Chandler's journalistic excellence at it best or?
Maybe here previous talent at Rap Entertainment TV is a much better fit. Math and integrity is seemingly not her strong points.
