An examination of COVID-related American death data has again revealed dramatic differences between Republican and Democratic counties, with the reddest tenth of the nation in October chalking up a death rate six times higher than that of the bluest tenth, NPR reported.
That radical divergence for Republican counties has since dropped to a still startling 5.5 times higher, according to Charles Gaba, an independent health care analyst who has been tracking partisanship pandemic trends.
NPR's analysis found that since May, when COVID-19 vaccines became widely available, counties that voted in 2020 for Donald Trump by 60% or more have suffered nearly triple the rate of COVID-related deaths compared to counties that voted for Joe Biden by the same margin.
NPR gleaned the data by examining deaths per 100,000 people in 3,000 counties across the nation.
Though demographics varied widely among the counties, NPR determined that the single biggest factor in the dramatic difference was "misinformation" about COVID-19, which was linked to lower vaccination rates.
That held up even when controlling for age, which is the "primary demographic risk" for COVID-19 mortality, NPR noted.
The study found that the higher the vote share for Trump, the lower the vaccination rate.
Republicans are now the largest single demographic group of the unvaccinated in America, NPR reported. Being unvaccinated dramatically increases the risk of death from COVID-19, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"An unvaccinated person is three times as likely to lean Republican as they are to lean Democrat," said Liz Hamel, vice president of survey research at the Kaiser Family Foundation, a nonpartisan health policy think tank.
Polling by the foundation revealed that Republicans are far more likely to believe false statements about COVID-19 and vaccines. 94% of Republicans believe that one or more false statements about COVID-19 and vaccines might be true, and 46% believed four or more statements might be true.
Only 14% of Democrats tend to believe four or more false statements about the disease.
According to Hamel, underestimating the severity of the disease appears to be a major reason Republicans aren't getting vaccinated.

Since May 2021, people living in counties that voted heavily for Donald Trump during the last presidential election have been nearly three times as likely to die from COVID-19 as those who live in areas that went for now-President Biden.

And no Democrat, former or current, refers to that party as the Democrat Party. I suspect you have heard it and read it that way so often on your favorite winger fake news sources over the past decades that by now you don't even know that isn't the name of the party.
Seriously, wherever you're getting this Repub talking point from is obviously desperate to find any lunatic spin imaginable to distract attention from the fact that Biden and the Dems are producing the best legislative results across the board of any 1st year presidency ever while the Repubs are doing their usual nothing except scratching their butts and looking for any possible future opportunity to Crash the USA economy again and wipe out millions more USA jobs, the only thing Repubs have done for a living for at least the past century.

But the key thing to remember is.
Month after month, the number of Covid deaths under TrumpShit was generally increasing.
Now, under the Biden plan, the monthly death toll for Covid is generally decreasing.

Maybe they are so depressed by the unprecedented historically positive USA jobs creation and economic recovery we have had under Biden and the Dems that they've simply lost their will to live. Just my guess though.
