The State Where Almost No One Is Vaccinated For COVID-19

The CDC has struggled to measure and decide who is fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Most recently, it includes people who have received the 2023/2024 updates from Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, or Novavax. Dosage rules vary by age. With this as their yardstick, 33% of Americans qualify as vaccinated as of December 10, the latest period for which data are available. Arizona has a rate that is only about half of that.

Medical experts have become alarmed that a new variant has spread quickly in the US. The JN. 1 Omnicro sub-variant accounts for over 40% of cases. The WHO describes it as a "variant of interest" because it is growing rapidly. However, it does not appear to be a higher risk to health than earlier variants. Its rapid spread will affect the number of people who are ill over the holidays.

According to the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, not all states have the same vaccination rates. Most states with low rates are in the South. Arizona stands out as having the lowest rate at 16.1%. Texas follows it at 18.7%, Arkansas’ rate at 22%, Alabama at 22.3%, South Carolina at 22.9%, Tennessee at 24.4% and Mississippi at 25.5%.

At the far end of the spectrum, the vaccination rate in North Dakota is 58.8%, South Dakota at 58.3%, and 57.7%.

The coroner said they could not release the autopsy results for five years.

There might be a class action lawsuit somewhere.
I know that money is no balm for losing a child, but it would be nice to see the offenders sued into oblivion.

What's missing is covid death rates in those states. If we believe the CDC/WHO there should be a lot more covid deaths in low vax states.

There are....AZ is number one for COVID deaths per capita. North & S. Dakota way down the list:

“Didn’t matter that you have uncurable brain cancer, you died of covid.”

And when they stopped being able to inflate the numbers because they got caught doing things like that, they started blaming non-covid deaths on vaccination reactions. They milked this thing all the way to the moon even though they did nothing to put any belief and trust in what they were saying. I worked with uncle sugar for about half my life and I learned long ago not to believe almost anything they say unless I can actually see it. If they tell me the sky is blue, and I walk outside and see blue, I give them that one because the same guy will lie right through his teeth tomorrow.
