    No. It is not one on one but strong correlation. And if you look at anti mask, antivax governors, all Republican.

    Brother I don’t know you but 100% of what I said is true. Don’t call me a liar about a tragedy within my family, nor that of a dear friend. You take a shot or don’t, but don’t you dare tell me about my family and personal lived experience.

    I have no idea what might have happened in someone's family or what caused it. I do know that Covid vaccine had not caused 13,000 deaths and that Covid has caused over 700,000 deaths in the US alone.
    I'll take a sore arm.

    His doctor said without a doubt it came from vaccine and that he has a genetic predisposition to have this result. Believe what you want. I know what’s happened to friends and family and I’m sick and tired of those saying its not happening.

    A person might have a genetic predisposition to a vaccine adverse event. That, however, does not apply to the hundreds of millions who got Covid vaccine with nothing worse than sore arm.
    I remember when auto industry campaigned against seat belts with stories of people trapped in cars. Happens. But unbelted people going through windshield happens far more.
    People have died taking aspirin. People have died during colonoscopy. Nothing is 100 percent risk free. There might be a small number of people with health conditions that make them so susceptible to severe adverse events it is less risky to be unvaccinated. For the vast majority, smallpox, diphtheria, polio, measles and COVID are vastly more risky than the vaccine.

    its funny that any study or numbers that doesn't fit the vaccine mandate crowd is dismissed, but all the studies and numbers that do, are 100% correct.

    This is what one calls blind belief.

    its scary to me how many people stick to a hardline when its likely some of both?

    but everyone wants to make it political…

    shame on everyone for not being impartial and pushing a political agenda over common sense.
    And common sense says both sides’ numbers have flaws…

    My co-worker and good friend just died. Came down with Covid-19 on Friday and his heart gave out early this morning. 35 years old. Antivaxxer.

    Fuck.

    I will make sure I inform my wife in California who is as liberal as it gets, that all her Hispanic non vaccinated patients that died of Covid in the last 3 months were mostly republican. Same with my client in Mississippi who had to treat their unvaccinated patients (The vast majority who were black) in the parking lot because their ER was full.

    For the record, I am not Republican, Democrat or Libertarian. Just someone who hates the media and the politicians who puts politics over lives. Also for the record, I already have my booster shot

    Do you read first? I said correlation. There is. If you look at states with high/low vaccination rates they align with Biden/Trump. If you look at antivax governors, all Republican. If you look at legislatures banning mask/vaccine mandates, all Republican controlled. That is putting politics over lives, my friend.

    okay but a map would show Oregon voted dem. But thats just the metro. Tons of right leaners in the smaller places that could skew things.

    so take a republican state. Most of the large metros are still democratic and thats where this is happening… in the bigger cities, that are mostly democratic.

    Follow the cities. Not the states. States are too vast to make such a comparison.

    what cities show the most pushback on vaccines and are those cities democratic or republican in majority?
