Republicans have consistently told pollsters they’re not planning to be vaccinated —


Tucker Members and staffers would be required to get a shot that the CDC told us today doesn’t work very well and, by the way, whose long-term effects cannot be known.” (The CDC did not say this.)

Carlson’s Facebook followers commented eagerly on the video clip, spreading unfounded fears about vaccination among themselves. “Completely disappointed in our government, don’t believe a word they speak! Will not get the shot!” one person wrote. Together, Carlson and his viewers are a placenta and embryo, gestating dangerous ideas and keeping the pandemic alive.

Republican senator was booed and catcalled when he told a party audience in South Carolina to think about getting a vaccine against Covid-19.

It was Lindsey Graham

Then you have ivermectin

Fox News host Laura Ingraham, who pitched the drug long before many in conservative media or even on Fox itself joined her.
On Dec. 1, Ingraham welcomed a doctor who had advised Trump and claimed social distancing and quarantining don’t work

Chairman Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) hosted a controversial hearing featuring, among his witnesses, two doctors who advocated for ivermectin. Johnson claimed at the hearing that the information his witnesses provided was being censored on social media.
That was kibble for conservative media. The next day, Ingraham floated a conspiracy theory that rears its head to this day: the idea that drugs like ivermectin are being suppressed as coronavirus treatments because they are too cheap — or even that they would jeopardize the emergency approvals of the vaccines.


NPR looked at deaths per 100,000 people in roughly 3,000 counties across the U.S. from May 2021, the point at which vaccinations widely became available. People living in counties that went 60% or higher for Trump in November 2020 had 2.78 times the death rates of those that went for Biden. Counties with an even higher share of the vote for Trump saw higher COVID-19 mortality rates.

Statistics don’t lie

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

There are examples after examples of why Republicans won’t get vaccinated..

59 percent of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents say that believing Trump won the 2020 election is "important" to being a Republican⁠

These are the same core supporters who are more than likely to be against vaccines… and it’s not based in any factual reality..


Yet Jim’s introduced Race with what about blacks
When honestly the topic is about Republicans ( some whom are actually black or have a PHD or both). In an effort to defend a party that no longer exist as it once did

So here’s a question to anyone

If there isn’t anyone of real influence on the right telling people
not to get vaccinated.

Then who what or where is this moment rooted ?

Add Scott and Trumps idiot son in a recent conference states republicans just want to be left alone. I have no doubt the percentage of republicans believing Trump won are closely aligned with vaccine hesitancy.

What catchy name will he use, maybe the “truth network”, if we have learned anything, Trump is very good at setting up a new money grab.

"Yet Jim’s introduced Race with what about blacks

If blacks have the very lowest vaccination rate, I wonder why that's not an issue for you? Why don't you care about that?

I sit because you only care about blacks when there's political benefit to caring?

As I said, it's very very telling that none of you will touch that with a ten foot pole.

You go on and on and on about how stupid it is for large Republicans to not be vaccinated (and I agree with that). But when I bring up similarly low vaccination rates among a group that your side claims to care bout, you can't change the subject fast enough.

"Phil Valentine, a prominent Tennessee rightwing talk radio host"

Neither you nor I have ever heard of him. What happened to the podcaster birch tree?

"Marc Bernier, a host in Daytona Beach, Florida, had declared himself “Mr Anti-Vax”. #^&#^&#^&#^& Farrel, also from Florida, urged his listeners not to get vaccinated, and Jimmy DeYoung asked on air whether "

Neither you nor I have ever heard of them.

WDMSO, you want to prove that there are nutjobs out there, I concede that. But they have no influence. And they exist on both sides.

Who are blacks listening to? I'm sincerely curious. You are terrified of discussing that.

Jim unless your in the group of anti vaccination we all should be concerned about any population that refuses to get vaccinated. Unlike the far right Trump still is president republicans who won’t get the shot due to miss information, do you think the black experience with government and testing might have something to do with it. Put yourself in an older black mans shoes with the horrific history his eyes have witnessed and listen to the stories of what has happened to his community at the hands of the government and maybe you have your answer. Or they are just dumb arse republicans.

From the guy who says the reason why 64% of blacks aren't vaccinated, is because they're republicans. You're saying almost two-thirds of blacks are republicans.

You also are denying that Stacey Abrams said her election was stolen, after I posted vide of her saying precisely that.

And you accuse others of willfully ignoring truth.

I have no idea. I just wish their numbers were higher.

But you offered a realistic, logical reason that might be behind it.

"Or they are just dumb arse republicans"

or that.

was it the republicans or the democrats, who held andrew cuomo up as the “gold standard” of managing covid, when he forced nursing homes to admit residents who tested positive for a disease which we all knew would target the elderly?

the government, all government on both sides, performed poorly with covid.

I'm vaccinated, I don't care if someone else is vaccinated or not, I work with people who aren't vaccinated, I don't feel threatened by them, I don't give them dirty looks or criticize them either to their faces or behind their backs because they aren't vaccinated, I don't think they are stupid, they are actually very smart and informed and have made a personal choice...

but carry on vax nazi....

Viruses don’t care about your color, politics or really anything at all.
All they want is a host.
They mutate as a matter of course, rates depending on the particular virus.
The more virus, the better the odds of mutation.
So unfortunately while I could just say T&P for the unvaccinated, they do by some amount endanger the rest of us.
More than lots of other things people are claiming they are afraid of

I sit because you only care about blacks when there's political benefit to caring? AGAIN NOT THE TOPIC

As I said, it's very very telling that none of you will touch that with a ten foot pole. AGAIN NOT THE TOPIC JUST YOU TRYING TO DEFLECT FROM THE TOPIC

You go on and on and on about how stupid it is for large Republicans to not be vaccinated (and I agree with that). But when I bring up similarly low vaccination rates among a group that your side claims to care bout, you can't change the subject fast enough.

AGAIN NOT THE TOPIC BUT KEEP TRYING

"Phil Valentine, a prominent Tennessee rightwing talk radio host"

Neither you nor I have ever heard of him. What happened to the podcaster birch tree?

"Marc Bernier, a host in Daytona Beach, Florida, had declared himself “Mr Anti-Vax”. #^&#^&#^&#^& Farrel, also from Florida, urged his listeners not to get vaccinated, and Jimmy DeYoung asked on air whether "

Neither you nor I have ever heard of them.

SO BECAUSE YOU NEVER HEARD OF THEM THEY ARE NOT INFLUENTIAL REPUBLICANS ? IS THAT YOUR SUGGESTION


WDMSO, you want to prove that there are nutjobs out there, I concede that. But they have no influence. And they exist on both sides.

AGAIN THE BOTH SIDES ARGUMENT

Who are blacks listening to? I'm sincerely curious. You are terrified of discussing that.

You’re spreading misinformation
While you find it comical, it’s actually the opposite
Omicron was discovered by SA immunologists several weeks ago and both vaccinated and unvaccinated have been diagnosed as positive.
The data is not complete enough yet to determine the efficacy of the various vaccines.

you can only admit, process, and discuss topics which serve your agenda.

“Stacey Abrams never said her election was stolen. And besides, even if she did say it, she’s right it was stolen, and you’re a racist for questioning her. And no one in Georgia believes it was stolen, even though Abrams and I both believe it. “. Your words Wayne.

The first topic for you, should be electric shock therapy.

with the vaccines, republicans have a serious issue with truth, you’re right.

but blacks appear to have the same issue. you can’t agree with that ( even though you said statistics don’t lie 5 minutes ago), because it doesn’t help you politically.

Using capital letters, doesn’t make up for having a losing position.

you’re saying that i’m in denial that the gop has stupidly low vaccination rates. i never denied that, never came close to denying that, i agree with you 100%. again i’m not sure you know how to read.

you’re responding to an argument that i’m not making.

Caps were on I was just to lazy to change them.. sorry
your not making any argument that’s obvious . Hence the suggestion your denial of the Topic

Republicans have a problem with the Truth ? Took how many pages to make that statement

FYI blacks have low vaccines rates but for complete different reasons this is where we and the data differ

Is this what you’re referring to?

The United States is imposing sanctions on 16 individuals and 24 entities connected to transnational organized crime activities in Europe and the Western Hemisphere. It is a national security priority to combat corruption, which facilitates transnational organized crime.

you trumps covid response failed.

ok.

biden inherited an infastructure where a million people a day were getting vaccinated. yet 2021 deaths, before december 1, were already higher than 2020. Deaths are increasing.

so how would you say biden’s covid response isn’t a failure? more deaths isn’t worse than fewer deaths?

(CNN)Joe Biden's presidential campaign was built on two pillars -- "I'm going to shut down the virus" and I am not Donald Trump. He is failing on both promises, as Covid rages and Biden's behavior more and more mirrors his predecessor's.
