Don't you think that's a pretty low sample size?

I don't the numbers and I figured so.
What my take is regardless of numbers is its being turned down by all types, religion and race.

Yeah but a quantitative analysis is a crucial indicator here. And I must emphasize crucial, otherwise it's just opinion and, even worse, meaningless. You've got to nail it down with facts and numbers.

Cole Beasley say's he'll retire from the Bills before he gets the vaccine! Typical, coming from someone who has chanced, and put his body through extreme hits to the head and other places. But wants to protect himself by not getting vaccinated.
Let him retire and lose 12 million bucks.

How dare he make his own decisions about medical treatment.

We quarantine people with the measles and other infectious diseases, why not Covid-19? It is a deadly danger to the public. We've already lost over 600,000 precious American lives and now we are ramping up again with the new variant. Infected people ought not to be allowed around our vulnerable.

But if a vaccinated person becomes infected, he/she/ they are less likely to actually develop symptoms and if they do, symptoms are much less severe. I mean, 99 percent of hospitalizations are unvaccinated and antivaxxers think that is a coincidence?

99.5% to be precise. That means one out of every 200 hospitalizations for Covid-19 come from the vaccinated. How much more proof do people need?

That isn’t a true statistic, not sure why people keep posting it.

agree...but each State needs to access where the one are that have not taken the vaccine. Not all are refusing to take it for political or ideological reasons.

US life expectancy in 2020 saw biggest drop since WWII

NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. life expectancy fell by a year and a half in 2020, the largest one-year decline since World War II, public health officials said Wednesday. The decrease for both Black Americans and Hispanic Americans was even worse: three years.

The drop spelled out by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is due mainly to the COVID-19 pandemic, which health officials said is responsible for close to 74% of the overall life expectancy decline. More than 3.3 million Americans died last year, far more than any other year in U.S. history, with COVID-19 accounting for about 11% of those deaths.

Black life expectancy has not fallen so much in one year since the mid-1930s, during the Great Depression. Health officials have not tracked Hispanic life expectancy for nearly as long, but the 2020 decline was the largest recorded one-year drop.

The abrupt fall is “basically catastrophic,” said Mark Hayward, a University of Texas sociology professor who studies changes in U.S. mortality.

Killers other than COVID-19 played a role. Drug overdoses pushed life expectancy down, particularly for whites. And rising homicides were a small but significant reason for the decline for Black Americans, said Elizabeth Arias, the report’s lead author.

Other problems affected Black and Hispanic people, including lack of access to quality health care, more crowded living conditions, and a greater share of the population in lower-paying jobs that required them to keep working when the pandemic was at its worst, experts said.

Life expectancy is an estimate of the average number of years a baby born in a given year might expect to live. It’s an important statistical snapshot of a country’s health that can be influenced both by sustained trends such as obesity as well as more temporary threats like pandemics or war that might not endanger those newborns in their lifetimes.

For decades, U.S. life expectancy was on the upswing. But that trend stalled in 2015, for several years, before hitting 78 years, 10 months in 2019. Last year, the CDC said, it dropped to about 77 years, 4 months.

Other findings in the new CDC report:

—Hispanic Americans have longer life expectancy than white or Black Americans, but had the largest decline in 2020. The three-year drop was the largest since the CDC started tracking Hispanic life expectancy 15 years ago.

—Black life expectancy dropped nearly three years, to 71 years, 10 months. It has not been that low since 2000.

—White life expectancy fell by roughly 14 months to about 77 years, 7 months. That was the lowest the lowest life expectancy for that population since 2002.

—COVID-19′s role varied by race and ethnicity. The coronavirus was responsible for 90% of the decline in life expectancy among Hispanics, 68% among white people and 59% among Black Americans.

—Life expectancy fell nearly two years for men, but about one year for women, widening a longstanding gap. The CDC estimated life expectancy of 74 years, 6 months for boys vs. 80 years, 2 months for girls.

They’ve been rioting in the streets of France for nearly three years straight. I’m sure this will help boost morale lol. It’s actually probably just a way to quell the dissent more than it is anything to do with covid. Interesting how cases are way down from the height of the pandemic, yet new harsher measures are being rolled out. But yeah, I’m sure it’s all about covid and public safety and nothing to do with half the country wanting Macron’s head on a pike.

I have friends in Paris and friends in Southern France and they have been on lockdown most of the last two years...no need to make shit up ...people have not been in the streets at all in France much ...Macron has his detractors...always has. They haven't attacked their own capitol building throughout this stuff either...probably for morale.

not 3 years straight of protests in the streets....sensationalize much? Every country has protests every year..I can probably cut and paste several dozen from here at home from yesterday alone....and asking for the presidents head on a spike is something that only fascists tend to do..or proud boys.

what you made up is 3 years of protests in the streets ....let's not stretch it out from a rally in the public square..maybe you should start a corona virus in France thread...Macron didn't like Trump so I know that makes him your voodoo doll of the day...world opinion is not on your anti vax side..you're going to run into lots of walls until you get the shots..
