COVID-19 Response: An issue that shouldn't be at all political....yet here we are

Americans in counties that voted heavily for Donald Trump in 2020 were 2.26 times more likely to die of COVID-19 than in counties that voted for Joe Biden, according to a new analysis of data.

While COVID-19 death rates in regions are affected by several factors, including things like wealth and access to health care, death rates closely followed rates of vaccinations

And political affiliation continues to be the largest predictor of vaccination status, according to the non-partisan think tank the Kaiser Family Foundation.

You might not think that. But these are folks who are THIS CLOSE to thinking the "no shirt, no shoes, no service" is a monumental restriction on their freedom. This is the kind of stuff they make and promote:

None of us forced rightwingers to rebel against COVID protections and get themselves killed more than two times as frequently as folks on the left.
