Party leaders are unquestionably complicit in the premature deaths of their own supporters.
No country has a perfect COVID-vaccination rate, even this far into the pandemic, but America’s record is particularly dismal. About a third of Americans—more than a hundred million people—have yet to get their initial shots. You can find anti-vaxxers in every corner of the country. But by far the single group of adults most likely to be unvaccinated is Republicans: 37 percent of Republicans are still unvaccinated or only partially vaccinated, compared with 9 percent of Democrats. Fourteen of the 15 states with the lowest vaccination rates voted for Donald Trump in 2020. (The other is Georgia.)
We know that unvaccinated Americans are more likely to be Republican, that Republicans in positions of power led the movement against COVID vaccination, and that hundreds of thousands of unvaccinated Americans have died preventable deaths from the disease. The Republican Party is unquestionably complicit in the premature deaths of many of its own supporters, a phenomenon that may be without precedent in the history of both American democracy and virology.

My family was never jabbed, and we beat back Covid with Ivermectin and HCQ, thanks to our America First doctor.
I agree.
I don’t think the “powers that be” thought this entire vaccine thing through carefully. It’s much like their insistence on closing the schools to in-person learning. They didn’t expect the parents to notice and object to what they found the teachers were doing to their children.
As to the vaccines, the liberal left practically begged for the vaccines once Biden was elected. They masked, complied with all orders, and received every vaccine and booster the CDC recommended. They are the ones now suffering the greatest health harms. The parents who refused the vaccine, pulled their children out of public schools to home-school, and are refusing to get their children vaccinated, are the true winners in this vaccine scam. Those un-vaccinated, home-schooled children will be the future leaders of our nation.
There’s just so much of it which is worthless.
Dr. Naomi Wolf is exceptional as are Harvard Professor Alan Dershowitz and RFK Jr.
But your point about making fun of it is well-taken. It teaches conservative novices how idiotic leftwing journalists can be.
But it also exposes their shills on FR.
Right...these lunatic leftists cannot write anything without projecting their hatreds and lies.
Not worth butt wipe, the paper they print.
He also got RID of Fauci and brought in Atlas. In many ways a hero when he did that.
But sadly Biden brought back Fauci.
I am against the cruise companies requiring vaccines, but I am also uncomfortable with the government telling private companies what to do.
What a BS article.
You don’t think conservatives should fight back against leftists?
Not as many as vaxxed dumbles...
No, there has been way to escape the devils that twist literal events as they happened in real time. Carry on.. Why do you not hold the gods of science, that literally took the money to stir up a deadly potion accountable?
I got it and 3 days later I could smell my coffee again. My father and mother and wife all got it. We are all here. Naturally immunized. Unfortunately her mother an father both got it and were vaxed and boosted after (Stupid woman). One infirm. One in a nursing home. I can say nothing more than that. Just one little data point out here. I sit here and am sure to hear from my parents wanting to know if I want anything from Costco... their favorite store.
I got prescription from a doctor, but never ended up using it.
With an empirical amount of data proves the vaccines are detrimental to health Pfizer I guess keeps bribing these lairs!
That’s why the Democrats are importing so many replacements, excuse me, illegals.
Uh, where are the stats on that? IIRC inner city minorities made up most of those numbers.
And succeeded in producing three unsafe and ineffective genetic engineering injections. Two mRNA injections and one DNA injection. As anyone with a brain predicted, governments attempted to mandate those injections as soon as the opportunity presented itself.
If every unvaccinated Republican died, they would be very happy.
However, that is not happening.
When Trump was running he went on about what a fighter he was. Then when he won he became a cowering little shadow.
Hubris is the enemy of science. (And just about anything else.)
