While reading “Playing Favorites? Hospital Boards, Donors Get COVID Shots”, I learned that many hospitals recieved backlash from giving employees and board members the vaccine first.  In Seattle, one hospital gave a donor the vaccine before others and the hospital released an apology. This looked really bad as he was giving the hospital a good amount of money. This happened inmany other instances where people were given the special treatment of vaccines before others. 

In doing my research for Mini- Analysis 4, I saw the effects of a lack on integrity on the publics trust. These articles I read reflect what I learned from this one. I research financial institutions who have the reputation of being unethical. These traits are similar to the ones I see here as companies such as the Seattle hospital put their wellbeing over the right thing to do. 

During the pandemic, I remember how everyone was frantic. Certain groups of people needed vaccines more than others for health reasons. My mom was a teacher and had to get a vaccine in order to continue teaching. This was further down the line and not iidiately in the beginning as that woudlve been unfair to those who needed it. 

I see evidence of unethical issues like this frequently in society. When watching the news, I hear all kinds of stories about how people with money gain more advantages than those without. This also applies to people with power in general.
