The Post reports, "More than 600,000 people have died in the United States from covid-19, with nearly 34 million cases reported.Please note: Every one of the under-performing states are run by Republicans, every single one!
"The government’s effort to vaccinate as many Americans as possible continues to face hurdles, including resistance among people who identify as Republicans, according to a Washington Post-ABC News poll. The poll shows that while there is room for growth in vaccinations, going well beyond the 70 percent target could prove difficult.
"The differences between Republicans and Democrats on the issue of vaccinations are stark, just as they were about reopening the economy during the worst of the pandemic. The survey finds that 86 percent of Democrats have received at least one shot of a vaccine, compared with 45 percent of Republicans.
"While 6 percent of Democrats say they aren’t likely to get vaccinated, 47 percent of Republicans fall into that category.
"Asked about the accuracy of the warnings about the delta variant, there is a sharp partisan divide, with 57 percent of Republicans saying officials are exaggerating the delta variant’s risk, compared with 39 percent of independents and 12 percent of Democrats.
"There is also an educational divide, with 59 percent of those with college degrees calling the warnings accurate, compared with 38 percent of those who do not have degrees."
The reverse of the last reveals that 62% of those without a college degree think the delta variant which ravaged India is bogus.
