These almost seem like targeted hits for propaganda purposes. 1 is a coincidence, 2 are an anomaly, a dozen are neither of the aforementioned.

YEs, those deaths are real, but it misses my focus — have any of the powerful and truly influential lefties fallen seriously ill or been hospitalized?

Anyone in the House, Senate or White House staff?

Any of the powerful NGO type?

Just haven’t seen it.

Following Occam’s razor, the Media is just not reporting prominent Leftists who get COVID19 after being vaccinated.

Outside Jesse Jackson and his wife I’m not sure.

I don’t see it as conspiracy, though.

If they are as “safe” as they push everyone to be, sure they’re less prone to it. Let’s assume we’re for freedom and they’re not. We don’t want a vax that’s untested, nor wish to mask up or worry about socializing. They do. Ok, so they’ll have fewer fall to COVID. The question is how appreciable is the difference? I say not much. Not statistically.

We’ve also seen less flu, etc. libs say that proves we should do these things to protect. I say like the flu, it’s not worth the effort or risk of vax.

That wasn’t the question. It was about getting COVID dangerously, period. Vax or not.

I still believe it was a possible assassination attempt when DJT “caught” the virus.

We’ve seen numerous “far right!!!” people fall ill, and several recently passing away....


Maybe it’s not actually China virus?

🤷‍♀️

Its simple statistics. It might seem like there are a lot of breakthrough cases, but in reality, they’re rare, and the cases are almost always mild. Breakthrough cases and deaths make the news because they were and are super rare. These news stories are amplified by the anti-vax crowd and reinforce the idea the vaccines don’t work (confirmation bias). In reality, they’re working quite well—keeping the vaccinated from dying 25:1 or more.

I think the anti-vax right wingers are also more susceptible to catching covid because they’re convinced that covid is a joke with “only” 1/2 percent chance of dying. So they are more likely to hang out in groups _unvaccinated_. At least the liberals like Nancy and Gavin are vaccinated and flaunting the laws and rules they pass. So they are WAY less likely to end up mocked on their deathbeds.

This is an unfortunate case of mass hysteria. If Trump were president, the number of lefties refusing the vaccine would be much higher— but that is unknowable, just idle speculation.

We may read about the rare cases of vaccine induced death in the news but the fact remains that they are extremely rare.
Occam’s Razor would simply state that the vaccines work and that’s why the powerful aren’t dying. They believe in and have received the jabs resulting in less serious illness than those that aren’t vaxxed.

I think there are far fewer antivaxers on the left. The prominent ones have taken the vaccine and there

If you think the gene therapy prevents people from dying of COVID, you're a regime USEFUL IDIOT. I won't take the Beast Shot, and I'm JUST FINE, as are MILLIONS who had your little sniffle cold and got over it.

“Have any prominent/powerful Dems or ‘Progressives’ become ill and/or hospitalized from COVID?”

Yes. I think a lot of us have the same question.

The Democrats have certainly benefited from COVID-19. Has it hurt them at all?

Something happened to Kamala Harris that she rushed to Walter Reed after meeting the Democrat Flee-bagging Superspreaders from Texas.

Your list would be really good if it included their ages and comorbidities...

Expendable and past his expiration date?

Remains could have finally made him useful as fertilizer but the weed roots would probably have rejected him.
