Vaccine

That’s not an answer……

To your point, no. It’s not scary at all. My 80 yr old father with a heart condition just rolled thru Covid as if it were a seasonal cold. He got the first round of shots back in 2021. Your point?
Glad your dad is well. One case can’t really prove more than that. Otherwise, you’re making the same mistake as the NYT made in its coverage. “I heard about this one guy” is not the same as an accurate reflection of overall risk.

Husker was pointing out that the vaccine seems to be working, among those who take it. As a result, when you get a demographic shift in who is unvaccinated, you also get a shift in who is dying from covid.

That “shift” based on racial demographics doesn’t change the statistics on specific vulnerabilities that account for the vast majority of Covid deaths.

The study, the fact that now that minorities are on board with getting vaxxed the numbers have tilted the other way. Now it’s those fed a steady diet of fear and distrust that are feeling the pain.

Exactly.

Yes, the specific vulnerabilities, such as being old, overweight, or unvaccinated.

The presence of one item in that list does not negate the importance of the other two. The data is rock solid on all three at this point.
 
Along with earthquake drills and once upon a time cold war drills. Leftist's seem to struggle with relativity, materiality and cause and effect.
 
I wonder what their future of doing active shooter drills will do to them? I thought righties saw all this psychological stuff as namby-pamby bs? Parenting, parenting, parenting.

Do you have kids? They have been doing active shooter drills in school for at the last 10 years...just like fire drills...not sure how you didn't know that
 
The Covid death rate for white Americans has recently exceeded the rates for Black, Latino and Asian Americans.
But these large racial gaps in vaccination have not continued — and as a result, neither have the gaps in Covid death rates.​
Instead, Covid’s racial gaps have narrowed and, more recently, even flipped. Over the past year, the Covid death rate for white Americans has been 14 percent higher than the rate for Black Americans and 72 percent higher than the Latino rate, according to the latest C.D.C. data.​

Maybe its a different Covid in California, because according to the CDPH it still affects minorities much worse?
They actually call it severe!!! :| But yet vaccination by ethnicity is relatively similar?
Strange how this disease works, huh????

Not the schools my kids attended. If they did my kids never complained about it, but they are secure in who they are. Strong people move forward, try it sometime.
Just wondering when we start “hardening targets” where does that end? School? Church? Movie theaters? Grocery stores? Concert venues? Senior centers? Post offices? Parks? Buses? Our homes?

So this is just partisan ‘crying wolf’ for a reaction?

It’s clear you don’t think this is an issue for kids, based upon your own experience.

Try being genuine, you might get a better reaction… or maybe even respect. Just attaching presumptive opinions to others and slapping a political label on it is weaksauce.
