Joe wrote: I am unfamiliar with any reasoning behind the focus on sickle cell in an EMT test, but it is obvious some on this forum believe it is a racial issue created by the federal government. All we have is some anecdotal information as to questions on a test taken by one individual, or did I miss something? Now, who on earth would not see introducing the issue of the federal government and "sensitivity" as not related to the racial issue of Blacks being especially prone to sickle cell disease? |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Joe- Are you kidding me? Are you including me in thinking by helping this young man out I am somehow bringing up a racial issue? |
