The Republican party thinks that they can take back the House next year, but I’m not sure there will be enough republicans to win an election. Look at a political map and a covid map. The deep red states are low vaccination, the opposite for democratic states with high vaccination rates.

The stubborn, gullible, and stupid are now the ones who are dying from covid. Every covid death right now can be avoided.

While I agree, it seems it takes a flashbulb moment to trigger the population.

I’ll refrain from the political divide. I will say it’s the duty of the repubs to guide their constituents. If Trump and his family got vaccinated, what’s the issue? Because yeah, they are pretty much the ones dying right now.

But everyone is still at risk. Because as long as there is population that it can exist in, a mutation can happen that the vaccine won’t protect against. Then we are back to square one again. Also this delta variant is stronger, more contagious, and produces more strain.
