    Default A surge in vax: here’s why

    https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...-rate-n1280234



    Among adults who have received their Covid vaccinations since June 1, 39 percent cited the highly transmissible delta variant as a major reason, 38 percent cited hospitals filling up and 36 percent cited knowing someone who was seriously ill or who died, the Kaiser Family Foundation poll released Tuesday found.


    Meanwhile, 35 percent said they wanted to participate in activities that required vaccinations, such as travel or attending events, while 19 percent said employer mandates were major factors in their decision to get the shot. Just 15 percent said the Food and Drug Administration granting full approval to the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, one of the Covid vaccines available in the United States, in August for individuals ages 16 and older played a part.



    “Nothing motivates people to get vaccinated quite like the impact of seeing a family member, friend or neighbor die or become seriously ill with Covid-19, or to worry that your hospital might not be able to save your life if you need it,” Kaiser Family Foundation President and CEO Drew Altman said in a press release. “When a theoretical threat becomes a clear and present danger, people are more likely to act to protect themselves and their loved ones.”


    The latest Kaiser Family Foundation poll, of more than 1,500 adults, was conducted from Sept. 13-22. It found that the largest remaining gap between the vaccinated and unvaccinated was along political party lines, with 90 percent of Democrats reporting they had received at least one dose, compared to 58 percent of Republicans. Sixty-eight percent of independents said they were at least partially vaccinated.

    Seventy-two percent of adults in the poll reported they were at least partially vaccinated, up from 67 percent of adults who were polled in late July. Self-reported vaccination rates increased the most for Latino adults, and among adults ages 18-29, Kaiser Family Foundation said.

    According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 77.1 percent of adults in the U.S. have now received at least one dose of a Covid vaccine.

    Mandates grow the numbers of vaccinated. That is the goal. It should be a more common requirement.

    Of the people dying of COVID, Republicans outnumber Democrats by 4 to 1.

    Logically, Republicans should be thinking: "Hey. What gives? Maybe, gasp, Democrats are RIGHT about masking and vaccines?"

    None of you idiots know the politics of those who died much less WHAT they actually died from. Writing down the China Virus brought $$$$$ to hositals and the media lapped it up and spread more fear porn. A couple of the most panicked are posting ^^^^^.

    LyinBitch probably was one of the first to get vaccinated and now he's just lying about it because that's what the far right trumptards do.

    Judge Juan M. Merchan wrote that Trump “appears to take the position that his situation and this case are unique and that the pre-trial publicity will never subside. However, this view does not align with reality.”

    No shit, and by extension, "Democrats are right about almost everything? What planet have I been on?"

    I think he was referring to Republican anti-vaxers. Correct, they aren't worth spending to save their lives.
