You are 4.8 times more likely to die of Covid-19 if your Governor is a Democrat. (Vanity)
Worldometer, 2010 Census | 4/28/20 | Teacher317

Posted on 04/28/2020 3:37:40 AM PDT by Teacher317

You are 4.8 times more likely to die from a Democrat Governor’s state response to Covid-19 than a Republican Governor.

The numbers for the 48 contiguous States, using Worldometer Covid-19 numbers as of 4/27/20:

Democrat Governors are currently elected to head 22 states
164,941,892 population (2010 Census data)
721,579 cases
45,243 deaths
274.296 deaths per million population.

Republican Governors are currently elected to head 26 states
141,131,858 population (2010 Census data)
258,667 cases
8,003 deaths
56.70 deaths per million population.

274.296 divided by 56.70 equals 4.837671

Thus: You are 4.8 times more likely to die with a Democrat Governor managing your state’s Covid-19 response.

And the population density doesn’t explain the discrepancy either. The total land area for the Dem states is 1,435,232 sqmi. For the GOP states, it’s 1,574,079 sqmi... only 9.7% more area and only 14.4% fewer people. That does not explain 483.7% higher deaths per million, or 465.3% more deaths.

Just glancing at the numbers and thought I would share what pops out at me.

(Who knew that NM was the 5th largest state and that #4 MT has a Dem Governor? NV, CO, and OR are 7, 8, and 9. CA is #3. MI and MN are 11 and 12. Dem Governors head 7 of the 11 largest contiguous states by area. I learned several items today doing this, lol.)

What are your chances if you’re admitted to a hospital.

You are also 200+ times more likely to die from Covid-19 if you live within 40 mi of NYC than if you live within 300 miles of Wyoming, but that’s pretty obvious already.

Find me a data source for all 50 states and I’ll run the calculator for you.

How much more likely are you to die from Covid-19 if your last name begins with “A” than if your last name begins with “Z”?

39000 dollars billed to the feds, state wide ban on medication that will keep you out of the hospital available when it is to late. “ventilator to body bag” and a number on the death toll list, infecting nursing homes to up the death toll

From a friend:

My IHH nurse told me today she has a CV19 patient that was successfully treated with the HCQ cocktail, but they used doxycycline instead of Zpak and its what all the hospitals in MS are using and it’s 100% effective.

I did a similar study a week or so ago and got similar results:

Democrat Led States + DC = 23,447 deaths
Republican Led States = 4,999 deaths

Be sure to include Washington DC in your numbers as that has been Democrat led for decades.

What is the ratio if you take NY, NJ out of the blue states and just do 46 red vs blue states?

I spoke with my doctor two weeks ago and he said the same thing about using doxycycline instead of Zpak.

“””What is the ratio if you take NY, NJ out of the blue states and just do 46 red vs blue states?”””

When I did my similar study two weeks ago and removed NY and NJ the Democrat states had 9000 deaths versus the Republican states had 5000 deaths.

Just reading about that on another thread.

Since the hospitals are getting paid for intubating people, they are and that’s what does them in.

In addition to Cuomo making nursing homes take in COVID patients, where they are sure to spread it to a very high risk population.

Great way to get rid of all those who are costing the state money, isn’t it?

Get the per capita deaths by county and county vote percentage for Hillary. Then do a scatter plot.

Thank you, Teacher317!

We instinctively knew this to be true; you have put real numbers to our understanding of the problem.

Democrat mayors, country executives and governors LIEberal/
Socialist/Marxist/Fascist/Communist anti-American, anti-Constitutional behavior provides us a window into their totalitarian dream of what they hope OUR future will be.

NOT!

It is up to us to wake the American up and work our collective asses off to soundly defeat these anti-American tyrants in 2020!

We must Make America Great Again Again!

Re 4.8x as likely to die of COVID if your governor is a Democrat.

Correlation is not causation... usually.
