With over 600,000 coronavirus deaths in the U.S.,
resistance to the vaccine is hard to understand unless you accept the
fact that a large part of the population is really stupid. In the recent
resurgence of the disease, over 99% of deaths are among the
unvaccinated. Those of us that got the shots as soon as we could can
take comfort in the knowledge that the current deaths are freeing us from
a part of the population that was dragging us down. Their decision to
not get vaccinated is not likely the only bad choice they would have
made had they lived out their lives, and many of
those choices would have impacted the rest of us.
Too bad death statistics don't include political
affiliation. I would really like to know what percentage of new
coronavirus deaths are Republicans, specifically Trump Republicans. We
know that 74,216,154 of our fellow citizens voted for Trump in the 2020
election. That is 46.9% of voters, compared to the 51.3% who voted for
Biden. They voted for the guy who is so dumb he thinks that just because he was
in the lead at one point on election day, he should have
won - never mind that millions of votes remained to be counted.
He's also the guy that didn't take coronavirus seriously.
