Houston Mayor: ‘We’re Seeing an Intersection Between Covid-19, Health Care Disparities, Food Insecurities’

‘We were handing out turkeys, hams, food supplies for people to take home; for those individuals walking up, many of them turned down the Turkeys because they did not have the facilities to prepare, to bake the turkeys’

EXCERPT:

TURNER: “Brooke, I saw people in lines who had never been in lines before. And they expressed that. This was their first time. We are seeing an intersection between Covid-19, health care disparities, food insecurities. There were literally thousands of people who came in their vehicles and in their trucks, and then there were thousands who walked up. But let me tell you what got to me the most. We were handing out turkeys and hams, and food supplies, so people can take home. But literally, for those individuals who were walking up, many of them turned down the turkeys because they did not have the facilities to prepare, to bake those turkeys.”
