SPECIFICALLY ON THE MINORITY

SO JOINING US THIS MORNING IS
DR. BRANDON YONE, FAMILY
PHYSICIAN.
GOOD MORNING TO YOU, DOCTOR >>.

GOOD MORNING >>.

YOU'RE C.P IN FAMILY AND
INTERNAL MEDICINE.
IS THAT CORRECT?
THAT'S CORRECT.
WE'RE LUCKY.
OK.
THAT'S WONDERFUL.
WELL, LET'S TALK ABOUT THE
IMPACT RIGHT NOW OF KOBAN 19.
AND AS I SAID MORE SPECIFICALLY
THE LATIN POPULATION BECAUSE
YOU GUYS ARE REALLY DOING A LOT
TO TRY TO >> HELP.
YEAH, DEFINITELY.
AND THAT'S OBVIOUSLY A
POPULATION THAT WE REALLY WANT
TO GET THE VACCINE.
AND HISTORICALLY HASN'T GOT THE
VACCINE AS MUCH AS OTHER
POPULATIONS >>.
ARE THERE SPECIFIC REASONS FOR
THAT THAT YOU GUYS ARE SEEING
>>?
I THINK A LOT OF IT'S >>
MISINFORMATION.
I MEAN, YOU KNOW, THAT'S ACROSS
THE BOARD CONCERNS ABOUT
HEARING DIFFERENT STORIES AND
READING THINGS ONLINE THAT
AREN'T NECESSARILY TRUE.
>> ALL RIGHT.
HESITATIONS.
RIGHT.
NOT SURE HOW TO HANDLE THAT.
ARE YOU TELLING ME THAT THE
CLINIC IN SPEEDWAY YOU'RE
STARTING A NEW PLATFORM?
TELL ME A LITTLE BIT ABOUT >>
THAT.
YEAH.
SURE.
WE'RE WE'RE TRYING TO INCREASE
ACCESS TO SPANISH SPEAKING
PATIENTS INCLUDING STAPH, A
SPANISH SPEAKING CALL SERVICE
PHYSICIANS THAT SPEAK SPANISH
ACROSS FAMILY MEDICINE OPG IN
ORTHOPEDICS, DIABETES, MULTIPLE
DIFFERENT SPECIALTIES.
AND WE'RE HOPING TO INCREASE
ACCESS THAT IS SO INCREDIBLY
IMPORTANT.
WHAT DO YOU GUYS HEAR A LOT OF
TIMES FROM OUR LATIN FRIENDS
MINORITY FRIENDS ABOUT MAYBE
SOME OF THEIR BIGGEST OBSTACLES
IN DEALING WITH THEIR HEALTH
CARE AND WHAT'S RIGHT FOR THEM?
>> A LOT OF IT'S JUST BEING
ABLE TO GET THE RIGHT
INFORMATION.
A LOT OF YES ACCESS PROVIDERS
AND STAFF THAT SPEAK SPANISH.
WE'RE GOING TO IMPLEMENT PAY
SCALES AS WELL FOR PEOPLE THAT
HAVE DIFFICULTY GETTING
INSURANCE.
>> AND WE'RE HOPING TO REALLY
BE AVAILABLE FOR THEM >>.
THAT'S REALLY GREAT.
OKAY.
I WANT TO GET INTO THE POP UP
CLINICS BECAUSE YOU HAVE SOME
OF THOSE COMING UP AS WELL.
I BELIEVE THAT ONE ON JUNE 5TH,
RIGHT?
>> YEAH, I BELIEVE IT'S AT THE
LOWRANCE COMMUNITY COMMUNITY
PARK.
YEAH.
EIGHT TO 10 THEY'LL HAVE THE
JOHNSON JOHNSON VACCINE >>
AVAILABLE FIRST COME FIRST
SERVE NO APPOINTMENT NECESSARY
.
AND PROBABLY THE BIGGEST THING
I'VE HAD TALKING MY SPANISH
SPEAKING PATIENTS IS CONCERN
ABOUT THE NEW VACCINES AND THE
TECHNOLOGY AND I WOULD SAY WHAT
I TELL MY PATIENTS I'D LOVE TO
ENCOURAGE EVERYONE IS THAT THIS
TECHNOLOGY'S BEEN AROUND FOR
OVER A DECADE.
IT'S NOT NECESSARILY NEW.
IT WASN'T RUSHED.
IT'S JUST THE OPPORTUNITY AROSE
TO USE IT FOR KOVEN AND TO BE
ABLE TO IMPLEMENT A VACCINE
QUICKLY.
SO I FEEL THAT IT'S VERY SAFE
AND THIS TECHNOLOGY IS GOING TO
BE USED GOING FORWARD TO MAKE
LOTS OF NEW VACCINES PROBABLY
IN THE FUTURE USED IN THE PAST
TO HELP WITH EBOLA.
SO IT HAS BEEN TRIED AND TESTED
IN OTHER WAYS AND I THINK IT'S
REALLY SAFE AND KEEP PEOPLE
HEALTHY.
WHAT WOULD YOU RECOMMEND IF
THEY JUST SIMPLY HAVE QUESTIONS
AND THEY DO WANT TO TALK TO
SOMEBODY JUST TO I MEAN EASE
YOUR CONCERN?
RIGHT.
I THINK A LOT OF TIMES WE JUST
PUT SOMEONE TO TALK TO AND TO
GENUINELY LISTEN.
SURE.
>> AND YOU KNOW, FIRST OF ALL,
I'D REALLY ENCOURAGE THEM TO
FIND A BCB PRIMARY CARE DOCTOR
AND VOICE THOSE CONCERNS.
ALSO, YOU KNOW, THE CDC WEBSITE
HAS LOTS OF GREAT INFORMATION.
OK.
THE INDIANA WEBSITE CORONA
VIRUS THAT I AND GOV..
AS TONS OF INFORMATION AND CAN
ANSWER A LOT OF QUESTIONS THAT
PEOPLE HAVE.
>> WELL, YOU GENUINELY SEEM
LIKE YOU CARE AND THAT IS
APPRECIATED SO MUCH SO WE THANK
YOU FOR THAT AGAIN.
AND THE POP UP CLINIC JUNE AS
YOU SAID EIGHT TO 10 OR EIGHT
TO 10 AM THE LAWRENCE COMMUNITY
PARK AND THE COMMUNITY
BUILDING.
