i don’t distinguish between republicans and democrats. but you and wdmso do.

Maybe you should because the distinction is Huge ., and the reasons Republicans refuse the vaccine the masks and any other suggestion to combat Covid

Is based 99.99 % on misinformation and political bias spewed by Republicans and conservatives themselves ..

Yes their are other groups who also choose or have smaller overall vaccine rates but the Truth is

analysis finds that Republicans and Republican leaning independents, who represent 41% of adults, now make up 60% of the adult unvaccinated population across the country and that political partisanship is a stronger predictor of whether someone is vaccinated than any demographic factor measured.

Actually black leaders are encouraging blacks to get vaccinated, not sure why right wing media is not.
But the effect is showing

Since May 2021, people living in counties that voted heavily for Donald Trump during the last presidential election have been nearly three times as likely to die from COVID-19 as those who live in areas that went for now-President Biden.

he conveniently left out that Kamala Harris said she’d refuse to take any vaccine that trump suggested americans take.

she gets a complete and total
free pass, for telling those who listen to her ( for whatever godforsaken reason) not to get vaccinated. Subsequently, blacks have very low vaccine rates.

instead of blaming that on an influential black person who spoke against vaccines, Pete blames republicans.

Shocker!

She said she wouldn’t take a vaccine just because Trump suggested it alone, but she would look to the medical professionals.

she said ( after saying she’d want to hear from doctors) if trump tells us to take it, i’m not taking it. and trump is telling us to take it. Therefore, an idiot who listens to her, might be confused by what she’s saying. but she gets a complete pass, because she’s a democrat, and according to you, they can’t be wrong.

Blacks 13% of the population whites 76%

I know it’s the same thing.in your brain

Ps not all blacks are liberals nor are whites and not all liberal are pro vaccines and not all Republicans are anti vaccine

But these studies are clear Republicans are unvaccinated based mainly misinformation

Inside the growing alliance between anti-vaccine activists and pro-Trump Republicans

Bigtree has been banned from social media platforms like YouTube for making false claims about the dangers of COVID vaccines. But as the pandemic has dragged on, his conservative audience keeps growing. Often he speaks at conferences alongside people who claim the election was rigged, and promoters of QAnon conspiracy theories.
So I suggest again Jim you focus on the Truth if you throw a rock into a group of the unvaccinated or anti Abortion you have the highest statistical likelihood to hit a Republican . Not a Black person or some one with PHD .. and if you did hit some one in the other group even they would more likely be Republicans

Just give up the evidence is overwhelming

Nearly 40% of Republicans are still hesitant about getting the Covid-19 vaccine or refuse to get it,

There is good news the trend to get vaccinated has shifted a bit

"I know it’s the same thing.in your brain"

I didn't say there are more blacks than whites. I said blacks have low vaccination rates. In fact, they have the lowest vaccination rates of any race in the US.

Why is that? Maybe they are listening to what Kamala Harris said.

https://usafacts.org/visualizations/...SAAEgIONfD_BwE

"Republicans are unvaccinated based mainly misinformation "

OK. Since you seem to know why different groups are unvaccinated, please explain why blacks are unvaccinated? You can't blame Trump, because he's telling people to get vaccinated.

You insult unvaccinated Republicans for being misinformed. Fine. Tell us why blacks are also rejecting the vaccine?

Unless there's a reason (political, perhaps?) that you are too scared to address that point.

"Bigtree has been banned from social media platforms"

I have never heard of Bigtree. Not exactly as influential as Rush Limbaugh.

"and if you did hit some one in the other group even they would more likely be Republicans "

You're saying unvaccinated blacks are Republicans? Look at the data I posted. As of December 2, only 36% of blacks were fully vaccinated. Therefore, 64% of blacks have not been vaccinated. You think that many blacks are Republican? Is that what you are saying?

Please post SOME DATA, ANY DATA, to support your theory that unvaccinated blacks are mostly Republicans. I would really, really enjoy seeing that data.

Bigtree. I love it. Bigtree speaks for the entire GOP.
