CDC update





New figures posted on the CDC’s website

163 million Americans fully vaccinated 
6,587 — who’ve been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 had suffered serious “breakthrough” infections as of Monday.
6,239 people were hospitalized 0.0004
1,263 died 0.00008

Und?

Those are not all CDC numbers.

At least one of the numbers Ward did is wrong.

6239/163,000,000 does not equal 0.0004. He's off by an order of magnitude.

Yeah, he blew the next one, too.

Hey, Ward, learn to use your calculator.
Post them off your calculator then.

If you accede to Ward’s demand, he’ll next want you to bathe him, wipe his ass, and prepare his meals, not to mention read excerpts from Mein Kampf to him while he falls asleep.

Typical republican in search of handouts is what he is.

I don’t think Ron DeSantis is carrying that dead fish stench to any kind of successful run in 2024. Floridians won’t even let him keep his job in 2022 at this rate. Not good, Ron. Not good.

Did Ward make a demand?

Must not be able to figure out (a) his mistakes or (b) what an order of magnitude is. Perhaps both.

Of course, if I don't tell him his mistakes, he will strut around insisting he must not have made one!

Just 32% of the population of Caddo Parrish in Louisiana are vaccinated

What?  Are they all conservative white Republicans or something...?

Awww, poor baby.

You could take the headline and punch it into Google (or the search engine of your choice) and see what you come up with.

I wonder what you might see!

"The federal government has no right to tell parents that in order for their kids to attend school in person, they must be forced to wear a mask all day, every day," DeSantis said in a Friday statement. "Many Florida schoolchildren have suffered under forced masking policies, and it is prudent to protect the ability of parents to make decisions regarding the wearing of masks by their children."

Just 32% of the population of Caddo Parrish in Louisiana are vaccinated

What?  Are they all conservative white Republicans or something...?

They're in the top third of Louisiana and doing better than the state as a whole. Since all you did was pick the one parish that they mentioned that went for Biden and did no research beyond that, you missed that 3 other parishes that voted for Biden and are doing even worse than Caddo in vaccinations.

But you made me curious, so I pulled out those that voted for Biden (and Clinton) from those that voted for Trump (both times) and looked at the numbers.

Total Trump voting parishes population:3449980
One Shot Trump: 1315428   
Two Shot Trump:1158770

One Shot Trump percentage: 38.13%
Two Shot Trump percentage: 33.59%

Total Biden voting parishes population: 1,213,636
One Shot Biden: 570,569
Two Shot Biden: 510,037

One Shot Biden percentage: 47.01
Two Shot Biden percentage: 42.03

At a guess, looking at Louisiana's parishes, I suspect that one of the compounding factors is distance from medical facilities - Bossier, right next to Caddo and with a similar shape, is a bit worse and Cameron Parish, with a similar shape to Caddo's, is substantially worse and has a similar length to it. A few of the other geographically large parishes seem to, as well.

I'd be interested in poverty levels in those areas as well. And yes, other population demographics.

But overall, Kid, Louisiana is just more evidence of the national trend you don't like: Trump voters are far less likely to have gotten vaccinated than Biden voters, and their minor children, as well.

If the Biden CDC did not “ walk back” could it walk at all?



Dr. Rochelle Walensky, director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, issued a clarification statement Friday night after claiming on Fox News’ "Special Report" that the U.S. was "looking into" a possible nationwide vaccine mandate.
It was the latest reversal for the health agency, which has drawn criticism for murky communications regarding the coronavirus and policies and recommendations related to the outbreak.

To clarify," Walensky wrote on Twitter, "There will be no nationwide mandate. I was referring to mandates by private institutions and portions of the federal government. There will be no federal mandate."
