COVID-19 is killing more Republicans than Democrats

My co-worker lost both of her parents to COVID. Both unvaccinated. Your "survival rate" stats mean nothing when you're the one who loses a loved one.

Like I said, I'm so glad both of my conservative parents, in their 70s, are smart enough to get fully vaccinated.
It was their choice. Yes or no?

People make choices based on available information from sources they trust. In this case, some people are trusting Tucker Carlson and Newsmax over actual Virologists and the medical community.

The Republican party has an agenda to make Biden look like a failure by exacerbating the pandemic by encouraging their fearful, gun-toting base to fear the vaccine, thereby causing more deaths (of mostly the elderly that they see as as a drain on the federal budget anyway) and African-Americans, whom we have disgustingly seen disdain for by posters in this very thread.

Hold on. They have a primary care doctor? Why would you blame Fox News? What disdain? Find one racist post from me. Go ahead.
 
Somehow, that "survival rate" has left 740K Americans dead, with thousands more dying everyday. That's too many.
We are the fattest developed nation. Our media pushes fast food, soda and alcohol. During the virus we shut down the gyms and had people order food and watch Netflix. The average American gained 29 pounds. The virus kills the old and unhealthy.

I got the virus in March 2020. I have donated platelets to help others and did so until June 2021 when the Red Cross shut down the program.

Logical people treated the virus logically.
 
Covid-19 is now disproportionately killing people in red states and red counties in blue states, and the GOP could lose enough voters to cost them in elections for years to come.

Conservative media is killing Republican voters the party can ill afford to lose

From the article:

The coronavirus pandemic now has a heavy partisan bias.

COVID-19 hasn't disappeared in blue states like California and New York. But places that have managed to surpass 65 percent vaccination are in a better position than red states like West Virginia, Idaho, or Wyoming, where hospitals are overrun with unvaccinated COVID-19 patients. (Idaho's COVID death rate last week, for example, was seven times that of New York state.) Even at the county level, as David Leonhardt shows at The New York Times, there's a marked partisan bias: Republican counties in blue states have vastly more cases and deaths on average, while Democratic counties in red states are faring better than their neighbors.

A primary reason for this disparity is how right-wing media has come out hard against COVID vaccines. From pundits on Fox News to the gutters of Trumpist Facebook, anti-vaccine misinformation is everywhere. As a result, vaccination rates are starkly partisan. Many Republicans aren't getting vaccinated, and a lot of them are dying. Rejecting the vaccines is costing the GOP votes it can ill afford to lose.

Thus far, pandemic deaths have been fairly evenly spread, because COVID-19 hit blue states like New York and New Jersey early. Now conservative Mississippi has shot to the top of the state death rankings, with Louisiana and Alabama not far behind. Biden's 2020 margin of victory in the three key states of Wisconsin, Arizona, and Georgia combined was only about 44,000 votes. Something like 53,000 people have already died in those three states — and it seems safe to assume the people dying there and in other swing states are disproportionately Republicans.


Here another article on the subject:

Red COVID? Coronavirus deaths are highest in counties with the largest share of Trump voters: report

From the article:

In counties where former President Donald Trump received at least 70% of the vote in the 2020 presidential election, COVID-19 has killed about 47 out of every 100,000 people since the end of June, health care analyst Charles Gaba tells the New York Times. But in counties where Trump won less than 32% of the vote, the number is a fraction of that — about 10 out of 100,000.

The Times report featured in its morning newsletter on Monday also referred to a recent Pew Research Center poll looking at the political divide in vaccination rates, which found that 86% of Democratic voters had received at least one shot, compared with 60% of Republican voters.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that as the delta variant surged in early summer, those who were unvaccinated were more than 10 times more likely than the fully vaccinated people to be hospitalized, and 11 times more likely to die.



And here's a chart comparing COVID deaths from counties Trump won by over 70% to counties Trump won less than 32% of the vote:

And AIDS killed far more Democrat voters than Republican

You really don't know how to explain that?

These people were destined to die within the year regardless.

Look up the total number of people who have died within the last year, compared to the previous year. Very little difference

That's not true. The CDC's preliminary 2020 report shows the the total deaths increased by
over 572,000 over 2019:

Preliminary US death statistics show over 3.4 million total deaths in 2020 — at least 20% more deaths than in 2019
 
So you have no sources? Not one? Interesting.

Here, let me help you:


In a nutshell: the CDC says the Pfizer vaccine has never been determined by doctors to be the cause of ANY deaths.




You believe what you want to believe.
Personally I dont trust the gov who has been pushing the jab so hard.

Do you trust Reuters?

Apparently, your article on VAERS-reported vaccine-related deaths is misleading:

 
I'll tell you what.
You keep believing and see where it gets you.

No offense intended, but your sources are not at all credible. You provided a link to a far-right media organization called "Citizens Journal." Please take a look at its credibility rating from MediaBiasFactCheck.com:


From the report:

During the Covid-19 pandemic, the Citizens Journal has published misleading and false information such as this Over Half A Million Adverse Events Reported After COVID Vaccinations In The US So Far (And Counting). This story originates from the highly discredited Natural News, which routinely promotes pseudoscience, conspiracy theories, and fails fact check. In general, The Citizens Journal holds a far-right editorial bias and publishes misinformation.

Here's the deal...
I dont care if you believe in my opinion.
Personally I refuse to get the jab due to all the side effects.
It's obvious to me that you dont research all of the side effects and that fine.
You make your choice and I'll make mine.
