I don't think anyone would ever be satisfied with a trial that was just all African-American, would they?
So why wouldn't we try to just get as many people?
I don't think we need a quota or I think it would be reasonable if you're talking about a disease that is represented in a certain percentage of people.
Maybe that's a starting point.
Maybe you should make sure you at least enroll some of those people.
We label diseases so much by race.
You look at sickle cell, which is labeled as an African-American disease, but it really affects people across the Mediterranean into Greece and India and other places.
So we have to have a focus on taking care of the human, taking care of people.
Well, it is like moving a big ocean liner.
I think that we have to look at the way research is conducted and look at the way questions get developed.
And I think we have to have a different way of reaching out
and developing relationships with the communities we serve.
I don't think it'll be appropriate for researchers to just continue to sit in their homogenous environment and come up with questions that may only be curious to them or may not really help us improve our care to our older adults or to our Black patients, etc.
So I think just like any big institution, you have to start and you have to have a long-term focus and you can't get tired.
Very, very important.
Yes.
Thanks for having us.
Our pleasure.
Thank you.
