LOS ANGELES – Loretta Hsueh, 31, knew her parents were at high risk for COVID-19. The elderly Taiwanese immigrants had chronic health problems and managed a grocery store in Riverside, California, where many of the employees and customers were also immigrants or people of color. For nearly a year, they washed their hands and wore masks and hoped for the best.  After COVID-19 vaccinations began in December, Hsueh assumed the local government would ensure all grocery store workers would be contacted about getting the vaccine. When that didn t happen, Hsueh suggested her parents call the one phone number listed on the county s vaccination website to get help. The worker who answered the phone didn t speak Mandarin and said he couldn t help them get an appointment.
