You can go by a "what my friend says" statement...a guy calling about "what his friend says what happened" without corroborating evidence (like every false flag that is pointed out in other instances) or you can just look at the TX health directive:

If white dude didn't fit into any of these categories, he wasn't eligible.
People can be at high risk because of many reasons including their age, having an underlying medical condition, and other things. Some of the most common reasons are listed below:
At least 65 years old
Obesity or being overweight based on Centers for Disease Control and Prevention clinical growth charts
Pregnancy
Chronic kidney disease
Diabetes
Have a condition or are receiving treatment that weakens or suppresses your immune system
Heart or circulatory conditions such as heart failure, coronary artery disease, cardiomyopathies, and possibly high blood pressure (hypertension)
Chronic lung diseases including COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), asthma (moderate to severe), interstitial lung disease, cystic fibrosis, and pulmonary hypertension
Sickle cell disease
Neurodevelopmental disorders such as cerebral palsy
Having a medical device (for example, tracheostomy, gastrostomy, or positive pressure ventilation [not related to COVID-19])
