All things CoronaVirus

[runrussellrun]

I still don't know why so many people are angry at the vaccine and mask mandates but have no problem with Fox News enforcing mask mandates, vaccine mandates and testing mandates and Donald Trump and his third wife being vaccinated back in March.

Anyone on the right want to explain it to me like I'm 5?

Sure. Here is who is vaccinated:

Pretty much everyone working at Fox News, per company policy.

Every single living U.S. President and First Lady.

All 50 governors -- both Republican and Democratic.

Nearly 100% of US Congress. Every single Dem reports being vaxed. Majority of Reps also report being vaxed. So the overall "admitted" vax rate in Congress is over 80%. The remaining 20% are Reps who refuse to disclose their vax status. Presumably almost all of them have been vaxed, but they are too weasel-ish to say so. Many, such as idiots like MTG, cite HIPAA medical privacy to effectively lie about their vax status. I think Rand Paul may be the only member who says he has not been vaxed.

96% of American physicians.

75-80% of the military, soon 100%.

So who's not vaccinated? Pretty much all of the people die-ing of Covid. Who are so stupid as to listen to and rely upon their Facebook feed, Fox News and GOP leadership. All of whom are vaxed.

Trump said it during the 2016 campaign -- "I love the poorly educated!"

Do as I say, mouth breathers. Not as I do.

Pretty much ALL the people dying of covid. Outside of romper room and the magic swirling mirror...........what IS that number?

Pretty much ALL......would be...what....97%. (works for climate change/fear porn )

No kidding. Who knew that 3% of the covid dead were FULLY vaccinated.

best check your numbers.........or....you could just keep on making stuff up for no reason.......

So are you saying "most of the anti-vax mouth-breathers are indeed the Trumpist right-wingers." are black folks?

For the tenth time, let's fact check YA's scurrilous attempt to falsely shift the blame from white MAGAs to the black folks.

Demo groups listed in order from highest to lowest vax percentage:

White Democrats
All Democrats
Hispanic adults
White adults
Black adults
White evangelicals
White Republicans
All Republicans

Whites are still the biggest demo in the USA. So it makes sense that 60% of the remaining unvaxed are whites. And, of course, the overwhelming majority of those unvaxed whites are MAGA mouth breathers.

Also, the vax percentage in the black and latino communities has been increasing over time. Black adults and Latino adults have jumped ahead of the MAGA demos and (by all indications) will continue to do so even more as time goes by. Blacks and Latinos are willing to listen to and be swayed by experience and data. MAGAs -- not so much.

So blacks ain't the problem. Bubba is the problem.

YA keeps coming back to this dis-credited BS time and again. If we all didn't know YA better, you might wonder if YA is kinda racist himself....

TWP vs KFF....ummm okay ggait. You are now in Brooklyn territory.

Just following the numbers in the link I originally posted. Last time I checked numbers closer to zero were lower than number closer to 100 when percentages were involved.

Actually the opposite of racist....calling you knuckleheads' out, for calling them mouth breathing trumpist...you racists, you!

Yes, but as you're implying here, we do indeed know YA better. He's no racist.

He just defends Trumpism sometimes, is all. And to his credit, he doesn't do it ALL the time.

Had to keep the kids home today. there's a checklist, sniffle or cough is automatic keep them home. It was a shi**how but I'd rather be honest than have 20-25 parents lying because they think it's fine and put the rest of the kids at risk.

(and teacher, I guess though her equestrian trip and family getting it doesn't provide my much sympathy for her)

This is the part the Liberty or Death WWWs (William Wallace Wannabes) don't understand. Totally selfish and inconsiderate of everyone else.

And I have no doubt some parents would hit this issue and lie and send their kids in so they're free riding on the honest ones, but that's what it is to be a community sometimes. Certainly made my work day a hell of a lot harder.

Do as I say, mouth breathers. Not as I do.

While mostly "poorly educated", there are some cohorts of intransigence that probably are less likely to be Fox watchers and GOP members...might well be Facebook feed or other networks of influence, but not your typical right winger types. And then there are the flat out whack jobs, doesn't have anything to do with political affiliation.

But yeah, most of the anti-vax mouth-breathers are indeed the Trumpist right-wingers.

And now its spreading to all vaccines, not just this one...not even a smidgen of that has anything to do with medical risk concerns, it's all partisan "freedom" BS.

So are you saying "most of the anti-vax mouth-breathers are indeed the Trumpist right-wingers." are black folks?

https://www.kff.org/other/state-indicat ... 2asc%22%7D

Nope, those are rates, as in %'s of that population, not the actual numbers of unvaccinated.

60% (as in "most") of unvaccinated in US as of this month are White. https://www.kff.org/coronavirus-covid-1 ... ethnicity/

Most of those are indeed Trumpist right winger mouth breathers, though not all. You got your other sorts of kooks too.

But it's indeed, the case, which is why I responded to ggait the way I did, that there's a big issue with Black and Hispanic folks too, higher even as an overall %. Some portion of those may be Trumpist sorts, black and brown, and maybe quite a few indeed are in the hispanic group, but the key factor is mostly education level differentiation, regardless of race.

It so happens in the white population that lower educational attainment skews very heavily Trumpist, whereas that's somewhat less true of Black and Hispanic folks.

So, it's more complicated than saying it's just the Trumpist mouth breathers...but yes, it's indeed "most".

FDA committee today approved a Moderna 3rd (half dose) booster for those over age 65 and those below 65 with pre-existing conditions who are 6 months or more out from their second dose.

Salty may need to talk to his pharmacist about returning the half dose he weaseled a little while ago.

[ggait]

TWP vs KFF....ummm okay ggait.

Bahahahahahahaha!

How completely and laughably biased/wrong YA is. Because the data in the WaPo article is from...wait for it...The Kaiser Family Foundation! So I saw your KFF data and then raised you with more KFF data.

So YA -- show me some data (any data) that says that white Republicans are more vaxed than black Americans.

Only reason why whites have a higher vax rate than blacks is because of all those white, Democrat, urban/suburban, college grads taking their shots.

I'll wait for your data showing that the Bubbas are not the problem.

That's accurate, though small nit remains that there's some still important intransigence among other cohorts not motivated, presumably, by partisan idiocy. But sure, definitely related to education and social media misinformation campaigns that have as their roots the right wing conspiracy mongers who are doing it for profit and partisanship.

So I'd say "Bubba" is definitely the biggest problem (and those egging them on) but also some other issues too.

you're not allowed on covid fanlax to drop an anecdotal case and extrapolate it for the larger populace.
