How do they arrive at that number? And do they mean five times as many unavaccinated Republicans as unvaccinated Democrats?

But it's not even clear what he is saying.

He's saying the people who vote GOP are dying at 5 times the rate of Dems (from Covid)...keep that going for a year or so and would really impact the voting electorate...right?

That's not what he's saying. And how would he know? Does he have the voting records of everyone dying?

He's saying 8000 unvaccinated Republicans are dying weekly. And that's five times as great as Democrats. Is the implication then that 1600 unvaccinated Democrats are dying weekly? Where are these numbers coming from? How do they know who is a Republican voter and who is a Democratic voter?

And among the small amount of vaccinated people who are dying, can we assume it's an even split among Republicans and Democrats?

Thanks for asking. Twitter, of course, does not lend itself to full citations.

I derived the number from published COVID-19 death rates of unvaccinated people (about 1,000 per day).  And from the polls that show 25% of Republican voters are unvaccinated, versus 5% of Democrats.


I mean he did get torn apart for this response...

It would be awesome if the vaccination rate for Republicans and Democrats was 75% and 95% respectively, but it's actually 55% and 88%.

I really doubt 80% of current deaths are Republicans….but I bet 100% are Americans

Tommy Stinson, mild breakthrough case of Covid19, a couple of shows cancelled.

Joe Rogan, Covid diagnosis, and already taking the Ivermectin

Joe Rogan, Covid diagnosis, and already taking the Ivermectin

Rogan: He quarantined from his family, tested positive for COVID, and then “threw the kitchen sink at it, all kinds of meds.” He then proceeded to list said medicine: “Monoclonal antibodies, ivermectin, Z-Pak, prednisone, everything. I also got an NAD drip and a vitamin drip and I did that three days in a row. Here we are on Wednesday, and I feel great.”

Well, great. If he lives through it he'll never know what, if anything, actually helped.
