I'm not sure how valid his argument is, but I don't think you are presenting it fairly.

> Race is a statistical risk factor for covid because it correlates with numerous conditions like lower vaccination rates, higher obesity in some groups, worse medical care and so on.

This is plainly stated in the article. As is the fact that people with medical conditions (like obesity, or things that are the result of poor medical care) are already prioritized. Vaccination status is not.

His hypothesis seems to be that prioritizing non-white people is an attempt to prioritize unvaccinated people (seeing as the other risk factors are already being accounted for). He is claiming that it is more acceptable to exclude white people from the treatment than it is to say that you are giving preference to people who are unvaccinated.
