'In the summer of 2021 — after vaccines were widely available — the Republican excess death rate rose to nearly double that of Democrats, and this gap widened further in the winter of 2021.”

COLUMBUS — The following article was originally published in the Ohio Capital Journal and published on News5Cleveland.com under a content-sharing agreement.

National Bureau of Economic Research study graphic showing excess deaths by political party throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. The excess death rate for people of both parties was about 37% greater in late 2020 than it was a year earlier, according to a chart accompanying the report. But after vaccines became widely available in the spring of 2020, big disparities began to emerge.

A paper published last month in JAMA Internal Medicine said that the unvaccinated are 10.5 times more likely to be hospitalized with COVID. The unboosted are 2.5 times more likely, it said. The research comes after researchers at the Brown University School of Public Health in May estimated that 318,000 — or about a third — of the COVID deaths in the United States were preventable.

What a joke, you should be embarrassed to even report this kind of thing especially given no factual data to support it.

Holy propaganda…… that’s one way to try to sell your divisive agenda with inaccurate or completely false statistics about your political party and the ineffective vaccine.

what is this dumb ass shit

Yes, this is obvious. Anyone who did not take the Virus seriously and get vaccinated (as vaccines became available ) took a risk of infection & death. Many died because of conspiracies & lack of accurate knowledge.

DC_DeWitt Lotta people in these replies whose brains are violently rejecting the news that reality doesn’t care about their partisan affiliation.
