We can take action to address this problem by telling people that the claim is false that the BIPOC community is to blame for getting sick. It really isn’t anyone's fault because the BIPOC community is genetically more prone to COVID19, which obviously makes them have a higher rate of cases and deaths. We can also help the problem of blame to the BIPOC community by not blaming them ourselves. We can sometimes try to fix a problem for everyone else, but really we are the problem. You can make sure that you are helping fix the problem by making sure that you don’t say racist things about the BIPOC community which could raise the stress levels in someone which makes them more vulnerable to COVID19.

# data[].attributes.body
Biases towards the BIPOC community are being used to justify the fact that the BIPOC community is  being greatly more impacted by COVID19. Someone would justify this by saying that it is all their fault for getting sick. That isn't true because the BIPOC community is scientifically more prone to COVID19, and that isn’t their fault.
