I have to admit, I wasn't surprised after reading national polls that state that half of Republican men refuse to obey safety standards (masks, etc.), and get a vaccination.
Apparently Republican women are smarter.
To be "in" with the fractured GOP means opposing anything the Democrats or scientists have to say about the pandemic.
Being afraid of COVID-19 is not a bad thing.
Getting a vaccine to fight the virus is not a bad thing.
A partisan alternate universe is a bad thing when it comes to controlling a deadly virus that keeps mutating and getting deadlier.
Examples of overcrowded beaches and restaurants with people ignoring mask mandates are everywhere.
It's almost like living between two worlds.
One recognizes the real danger COVID brings, and the other pretends the virus has gone away and things are normal.
The fact is COVID-19 varieties are springing up in several states, as the virus morphs into deadlier versions.
Unfortunately, many social media platforms are hives of misinformation that allow science-deniers to spread their bullshit with ease.
It's up to people with sense to tell the difference between fact and folly. Let's hope there's enough people out there to overcome this pandemic.
