And?

And it just confirms that the decision to vaccinate or not is political, and not science or knowledge based.

Sad.

Maybe based on what you think. Those of us not getting it are not taking politics into account at all. People that do get it perhaps are so maybe that is what you are thinking?

I have explained all this above in the thread and will not repeat myself here.

If you have it and feel safe good for you.

That’s baloney. It looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, because everything you’ve spouted up to now from anti-masking, hydroxy, vaccine hesitancy, and “chinavirus” is not coming out of the CDC or the WHO or any of our major medical entities.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

The WHO is a joke. The CDC is politicized.

HDC was science. Good results from the field. Masks are silly, to make you feel good. And as I said, you can be the beta test for the vax, I will pass.

Looking more and more that it was made in a lab in China so why not give them credit in naming it "china virus?"

Hey, lets take the politics out for a second. If Anti-vax morons don’t want to get vaccinated and end up dying...

There are morons on both sides of the political divide. It must be a real guilty secret to be an anti-vax Democrat or a pro-vax Republican. :)

I said early on in this pandemic that it might be a useful reminder/prompter if only the virus could strike a few dead instantly in those crowded bars, family gatherings, crowded churches or political rallies. Then maybe the penny would drop with some of these morons.

But evolution is slow and the morons are many.

Serious question, cutting across all anti-covid measures, not just vaccines, but general compliance vs no-compliance... Can anyone point me to stats on how many republicans died with covid, compared to how many democrats? I see a few sites with narratives about state - state comparisons, but I'd love to see a nice head count comparison.

Why? We admit that there is correlation between political affiliation and compliance. We also see correlation between governor affiliation and rule imposition. I'd just like to see how political leaning correlates to deaths. It might be a factor in future elections. I think it WAS a factor in a recent election.

I've seen some contradictory or conflicting views that say dems and ethnic minorities tended to die of it more but that states with red governors were doing badly per capita.
