Want to teach inverse relationships?

Then check out these stats from the most Floriduh man county in all of Floriduh, Baker County:

2020 General Election

Obese Parasite: 84.3%
President Biden: 14.4%

2021 Latest Vaccination Percentage

All ages (Baker County): 19%
Age 18+: 24%
Age 65+: 59%

Me thinks there may be a correlation here.

In my city, we couldn't wait to get vaxxed. When it got down to 60 and older getting appointments, it was like the Rolling Stones came to town for a concert.

I wonder what the people in your county are thinking. I mean, if you're in a place where 80% are vaxxed, you might think you are pretty safe-- that's the way we'll keep kids safe until they're vaxxed, get the adult and teen rate up real high.

But in a county like that, they'll be interacting constantly- daily- with unimmune people. One person in town getting Covid-- someone who works in a shop or is very social-- and it'll be everywhere quick.

last week, the six person county IT department was closed. Five of them got covid. Two died and one hospitalized. Only one not sick was the vaccinated guy.
DUH!

"98% survival rate!" they blast, assuring each other that THEY will survive.

They don't account for a case like this, where a small group passes around a very strong strain-- and it kills 2/5ths of them.

And of course they don't care about the destruction of families and organizations that must somehow keep on going after this sort of tragedy.
