“ And only 58 percent of self-identified Republicans are vaccinated, compared with 90 percent of Democrats.
It’s a triumph of misinformation. Offered a lifesaving drug to counteract a highly contagious virus, many Americans are instead choosing to take their chances”
Well, this is obvious. College educated folks generally make smarter decisions for their long term health.
Wow that's amazing. One third of the US adults without a four year degree who should be dead but are still clinging on to life.
How do they do it?
Dumb luck, obviously.
Aren't these the same stats for Trump voters in 2016 ??
Blacks have the lowest vaccination rates...The Democrats base...

I'm surprised its as high as 67%.
What I really don't understand is that when trump was in office he repeatedly said that a vaccine was in production and was coming soon (which we all knew, as several nations were developing mRNA vaccines). So when the vaccine is finally ready and distributed....many uneducated Republicans refused to take it. Then the Delta variant hit and cases, hospitalized and deaths increased to all time highs. All the while everything was opening back up and the unvaccinated running around without mask on inside public places. Its almost as if they wanted death to continue. Covid19 is the 3rd leading cause of death in the U.S.
Remember Biden and Harris going on national TV and denigrating Trumps vaccine? That certainly didn't help...
The concept that a synthetic drug treatment rushed into a global-scale experimental application without any downside effects is best effected by an additional four years of societal indoctrination. It is the same indoctrination that makes it easy to convince the bourgeoisie that paying more taxes will lower the global temperature or stop racism.

That’s an interesting statistic that left wingers never being up.
Many without a college degree aren't old enough to get vaxxed.
There are a million blackish NYC alone that are second-class citizens unable to go about normal activities like going into restaurants, even if they are immune due to prior infection immunity.
If you have had covid and recovered, as hundreds of millions of us have, you have no need for a shot.

And yet Democrats have a significantly higher vaccination rate than Republicans. I guess that "base" you are claiming isn't all that large.

KNOCK IT OFF WITH THIS MISLEADING BULLSH!T. Black people are 12% of the U.S. population, so they're not "the base" of any party that has a majority (i.e. 50+%), as the Dems do.
And they're 11% of those who've been vaccinated, PLUS they're 14% of those who're being vaccinated recently, so the already-small disparity is rapidly disappearing.
"CDC data...show that recent vaccinations are reaching a larger share of the Black population compared to their share of overall vaccinations and their share of the total population (14% vs. 11% and 12%, respectively)...."
https://www.kff.org/coronavirus-covid-19/issue-brief/latest-data-on-covid-19-vaccinations-by-race-ethnicity/Meanwhile white people, who comprise 60% of the U.S. population, are also 60% of those who've been vaccinated.

Yeah, I'm sure the Republican base placed a lot of stock in Biden's and Harris' words!

It also didn’t help that most of the people we know getting sick and hospitalized are the vaccinated, while the unvaccinated remain healthy.

Unvaccinated are hospitalized/die at a higher rate than vaccinated.
