    The media is largest purveyor of panic porn.

    If someone would drill down on it, I’ll wager that they’d find that vax hesitancy correlates well with a firm grasp of the statistics.

    You must be addicted to talk shows. Try reading. Your local newspaper would be a good start.

    Any daily newspaper will have the data, Omar. The problem is a public that doesn't read the mainstream press and watches talking heads instead.

    700,000 deaths over 43 million cases, hand wave that away. Those are huge numbers.

    Honestly I'm surprised as much as 8% get it given the 24/7/365 nature of false reporting from "the media".

    Hello Darth,

    I've always admired you for hanging in there and 'taking it' after posting some of the most absurd statements ever seen about the pandemic.

    The 'Only 61 deaths' thread, of course, being epic.

    I think you've gotten this one completely wrong as well.

    It is true that the American public is very poorly informed about the actual statistics. The biggest reason for that is the Trump party actually chooses to not know. It is no coincidence that Democrats are very motivated to fight the pandemic, but the Trump party appears to want to make the pandemic last because it hurts the approval polling of the president.

    The pandemic is like the economy.

    The in-power president gets the blame if it's not going well.

    And there is direct linkage there as well between the pandemic and the economy.

    The pandemic affects the economy. Republicans want to hurt the economy when a Democrat is in the WH.

    Republicans are encouraging mask and vaccine resistance. It comes from the top because they know the ongoing pandemic hurts President Biden.

    Democrats are doing a far better job of fighting the pandemic. Blue states are in much better shape than red states.
