“Stupid White People” now top demographic in Covid deaths

Although minorities made up the majority of early pandemic fatalities, the trend has turned:  current data show white people being the largest racial demographic for coronavirus deaths, largely due to having the greatest percentage of unvaccinated people.

In an analysis by the Washington Post, which looked at records concerning coronavirus deaths in the United States going back to April 2020, researchers found that white fatalities surpassed Black fatalities in October 2021 and stayed there, except for the period when the omicron variant swept through the country.

The spread of the virus in some ways dictated who would be infected:  the first waves impacted cities where minorities make up the majority of the population.  Now, according to the Post, Covid deaths have shifted significantly in primarily-white rural and suburban areas.

Another factor:  vaccine deniers.  While Black people have a generational skepticism of government-endorsed health care because their ancestors were routinely used as Peachtree Petri dishes without their consent, whites have quickly adopted anti-vax attitudes that match their debunked political conspiracy theories.

Over time, Blacks overcame their skepticism as their peers got vaccinated, but those in the conservative Bubble continue to claim they have better science about a horse paste curing everything.
