This is a blue state bug (for now at least)

FOX news is all in on doing whatever it can to discourage vaccination and push vaccine disinformation.


Ugh. If true, that's pretty sick. Putting peoples' lives at risk in order to try and win elections?


Is it true? DCUM trusts anything that fits its narrative. I’d love to see how FOX is doing all it can to push ‘vaccination disinformation’. Aside from the obvious hyperbole, it misses a lot of possibilities.

Maybe ask this former Fox executive?

“On May 5, Fox News and Tucker Carlson added another entry to their laundry list of reckless and incendiary claims regarding COVID-19: “Official government data” indicates dozens of people a day are dying after receiving COVID-19 vaccinations.”

FOX is clearly stuff-stirring, but you’re imagining that they are being ‘anti-vax’, especially if you claim they’re doing all they can to push that.

And it’s obvious all of you have let other cynics stir your stuff...

Shopworn tactic of deny, then make a counter accusation.

we don't have to imagine it. We can see it happening on the program.

You are in denial. Even former Fox News exec thinks Fox News is peddling anti-vax conspiracy theories.

COVID cases: 8
half-vaxed: 75.6%
fully vaxed: 68.5%
MoCo 12+ (those eligible for vaccination):
half vaxed: 89.1%
fully vaxed: 80.8%

? 12+ fully vaxxed is 80.8%? Fully vaxed adults i 68.5%? So 12+ as a higher rate of vax than adults? Really?


No, that’s 68.5% of the FULL POPULATION, newborn+. It’s 80.8% of the population that’s eligible for vaccination (12+). I didn’t bother listing the 18+ statistic since it’s even higher and pretty meaningless givens the 12+ is so high.

I just checked for you, for 18+ in MoCo: 82.6 Full vaxed and 90.4 half-vaxed.

If you want to dis me for something, the easy win is noting that I am foolish enough to assume you’re engaging in good faith.

I’ve checked the MoCo vax by zip code map and the Republican areas, like Boyds and Ag Reserve, are fairly high. Low-income areas like Aspen Hill and Wheaton look noticeably worse.

There’s an education and income aspect to it too. The Republicans in MoCo are a lot of blue blood economic Republicans that have educations.

Education is almost indistinguishable from income. Poverty, and accompanying issues like distrust, are at the forefront of vaccination hesitancy.
