I'm hearing this rhetoric about needing more people to get vaccinated to protect against new variants, while a new variant that has escaped vaccines is circulating. Mind boggling.
That black number is still higher than I thought it would have been. If you would have asked me what the percentage would be a year ago, I would have said you would be lucky to get 15-20% vaccinated.Think this chart is interesting...much to take away...First, blacks are the least Vaxed...not some Trumpers. Although only a smaller fraction of the overall population, they seem to get a pass.
You start to have millions of people with subsequent life altering issues...the giv is gonna have a HUGE problem years to comeView attachment 426726
You're assuming these numbers aren't massively fudged. I would guess, realistically, maybe only 60% of us white people are vaxxed. Not whatever they're claiming here. 15-20% of black folks is actually probably closer to the mark.That black number is still higher than I thought it would have been.

Whoa don't ask questions you conspiracy theorist!
Some say the shots donโt seem to work because vaccinated people are still getting sick. Others say itโs not worth taking time off to deal with the potential side effects. Or that no one clearly explained why guidance changed from two shots to three.
In the greater Washington region, just 34 percent of Black Marylanders who were fully vaccinated have gotten a booster, compared with 46 percent of White residents; in Virginia, itโs 34 percent of Black residents and 45 percent of White residents; and in D.C., itโs 21 percent of Black residents and 33 percent of White residents. That trend is echoed across the country, according to a report from the Kaiser Family Foundation, although federal data is spottier because not all states and counties report the race of vaccine recipients.
I honestly had not even read the whole article. But man those are some fascinating points/numbers.Show me the lie...
So wait, this is breaking news right here. You telling me in the belly of the beast in the DMV that they are only getting 33-45 of these white (mostly liberals/govt sycophants) boosted? WTF are they waiting on. That is probably the biggest nugget revealed in that article. Are they "vaccine hesitant"? Why?
โIt is like, โYou told me to do this, I did it. You told me to do this, I did it. Now you want me to do something more?โ โ said Neal, a radio personality whose uncle, great-uncle and cousin were among the 600 Black men who unknowingly participated in the study, in which treatment was deliberately withheld from them. โWhen will it ever end?โ
And again, I believe those numbers are fudged up big time.Show me the lie...

Which is odd considering trump took and advised the shot.None of the Mexican folks around here are taking it. They sit around work talking about how their people won't, yet one guy will sit right there with us, and swear it's just trumpers and Christians who won't take the shot![]()
Wish I could give this more than one like. You nailed it sir. From a fellow unvaxxed covid survivor.That one right there should have been the nail in the coffin, but now people come back with, "well, none of the experts said it would stop transmission"... or they try to gaslight you and say, "well who said that the vaccines would stop transmission or stop you from catting it?"
