Yes, i did make a mistake. I meant 2020. You know that. Doesn’t change anything. Bullshit study. You believe this bullshit because you want to believe it. Seems like you’ll believe a lot if bullshit that supports your opinions.
Taking the journalist's word for what's in the study instead of reading it yourself?
What? Did you read it? From the actual study:
However, one alternative explanation is that political party affiliation is a proxy for other risk factors (beyond age, which we adjusted for) for excess mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic, such as rates of underlying medical conditions, race and ethnicity, socioeconomic status, or health insurance coverage.
Found a correlation and not necessarily the cause. Many other factors, besides the ones just mentioned, could factor into it.
I’m gonna also give an opinion, even though opinions trigger you - another possible factor in the correlation is that democrats were more likely to cower in their basements because the news told them to. Can’t get covid if you don’t leave the house.
cower in their basements because the news experts told them to.
Fixed that for you.
It's the "You're not the boss of me!" poking its head out again folks. "You're dumb for doing what the people who understand pandemics and public health advise."
"You're dumb for doing what the people who understand pandemics and public health advise."
I wouldn't otherwise do this because I'm not gay. I will this time because you do this to others - Advice, not avise.
But anyway, your fix was not required. News media blew this out of proportion. Some "experts" recommended staying inside, some recommended that those at risk stay inside, while others recommended not to because there are consequences besides catching covid to cowering in your basement. You see, things like this are not unanimous. "Experts" have variants in opinions.
But anyway, since you understand this mow, you finally understand that the correlation in the study isn’t necessarily due due vaccine hesitancy. It may or may not be and might have somewhat to do with it. But at least you get that the actual study is bullshit.
The study is titled "Excess Death Rates for Republican and Democratic Registered Voters in Florida and Ohio During the COVID-19 Pandemic"
It's findings are "In this cohort study evaluating 538 159 deaths in individuals aged 25 years and older in Florida and Ohio between March 2020 and December 2021, excess mortality was significantly higher for Republican voters than Democratic voters after COVID-19 vaccines were available to all adults, but not before."
It's conclusions are "In this cross-sectional study, an association was observed between political party affiliation and excess deaths in Ohio and Florida after COVID-19 vaccines were available to all adults. These findings suggest that differences in vaccination attitudes and reported uptake between Republican and Democratic voters may have been factors in the severity and trajectory of the pandemic in the US."

You're still making a mistake. This is the first time you've mentioned 2022 in this thread.
Sloppy.
What are you trying to say?
Correct. "... excess mortality was significantly higher for Republican voters than Democratic voters after COVID-19 vaccines were available to all adults, but not before ..."
Bullshit. "easily" does not appear in the study. Why are you pretending the author of the study used it?
Sloppy?

Or straight out lying?

Doesn't change the fact you were quoting the journalist while claiming to quote the study author. And you chose to leave out this part of the study: "...even though we only observed differences in excess mortality after vaccines were available to all adults."
Fixed that for you.

You're entitled to your opinion.

Your opinion is noted.
Oh, the irony 😁
