In this data set from early December we see that there is no real statistical difference between whites and hispanics but black people the rate is at 50%. However, it needs to be noted that the gap between vaccinated rates for black people and vaccinated rates for white people decreased by 14% points when the vaccination eligibility was opened in April. This tells me there were occupational reasons and age eligibility reasons for the discrepancy. Looking at figure 3 there was almost a plateau for white people but it looks like Omicron has created a bump but it also looks like vaccination rates in black people are currently headed toward a plateau as well.
Ther is also this data set which shows lags in vaccination rates in counties that supported Trump. https://www.kff.org/policy-watch/the...ination-rates/
Almost at a 13% rate difference. According to figure 1 it is the exact opposite of the increase in rates we see for minorities in April we see a decrease in rates in Trump counties which is interesting. To me it is definitely politically driven whether it is Biden's policy or Trump's push of a hoax is debatable. |
End the end…the data is what the data is. My facts aren’t wrong about the vaccinated. If you are gonna excuse minority group vaccination rates…and mix in political reason then add the context these are in majority Democrats run urban areas…why have they failed to provide the vaccine along with a dem run federal government. Also that young age group with low vaccine rates…what’s their excuse?
If you want to see something interesting is look up the vaccination rates timeline and watch what happens when the J&J pause went into effect.
