FULLER STORY

Re the Jan. 24 story “Wealthiest ZIP codes are also the most vaccinated for COVID-19, data shows:” This article is somewhat misleading.

Yes, the wealthy ZIP codes are getting the vaccine, because people over 65 have priority and older people tend to have more wealth, to a large part because of homeowners­hip.

Also, doctors and their families have priority, and doctors tend to live in wealthier areas. The article also revives the story of Fisher Island residents getting COVID-19 tests early.

The health clinic on Fisher Island asked residents to come in for tests for a study.

Please, don’t make the wealthy look evil.
