Synopsis
People with intellectual and developmental disabilities like Down Syndrome,
Cerebral Palsy and Autism often have underlying health conditions that make
them more susceptible to COVID-19. Plus, many receive care in group living
facilities, putting them at further risk. But despite the elevated risks
for those with IDD, they face an uphill vaccination battle. William
Brangham reports.
