MODERATORS
They are saying statistically some ethnicities are sicker than others and they should be looked at earlier. Nothing wrong with that.
“At a basic fundamental level, when a Māori patient hits that surgical wait list they’re already far behind their non-Māori counterparts."
Seems pretty straight-forward to me.
It's not "perceived", it's measurable.
Do they though?
If the triage was being done correctly there would be no need for a change in policy. Obviously it's not and obviously it's hurting some ethnicities more than others.
maybe this is a way to fix the racism. Can you think of any other way to fix racism?
I did read it. Are you saying we can solve this problem by simply eliminating racism from the planet?
How do you eliminate racism and are we allowed to do anything until racism is eliminated?
