Marshawn Lynch and Dr. Anthony Fauci Tackle Vaccine Hesitancy in Black and Brown Communities

NFL legend and Oakland-native Marshawn Lynch “sat down” with Dr. Anthony Fauci, the chief medical advisor to the Biden Administration and the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, for a one-on-one to learn about the COVID-19 vaccine; talk about hesitancy in Black and Brown communities across the country, and discuss how the historical treatment of The Community has created a crisis of health disparities. As with all things Lynch, no punches were pulled during the +30-minute virtual discussion, and Fauci made Brooklyn proud by continuing to help educate everyday Americans with facts about the virus and vaccine while addressing history and providing hope for a path forward.
