‘Blatant Racism’: Clinic Labels Black Woman’s Medical Sample ‘King Kong’

Later in the video, the staffer who was uninvolved in the incident located the medical assistant who printed the racist label.

The assistant addressed King, saying, “It wasn’t my intention to do that.” She then tried to claim that she had King double-check the name on the label before she took her sample.”No, you didn’t,” King insisted.The medical assistant then blamed the incident on how fast she was typing.

“I type really fast. I don’t double-check when I’m typing fast,” she told King.

The video ended with King asking the medical assistant for her name to report her.

TikTok users flooded King’s comment section with support, urging her to sue the clinic.

“I hope you take legal action,” one TikTok user wrote.

“As a former healthcare worker, that was NOT a mistake,” another said.

“She thought typing King Kong was funny and then didn’t change it before it was printed. She meant it, but she didn’t think the patient would ever see it. File all the reports,” a third person commented.
