Covid death rates are higher among Republicans than Democrats, mounting evidence shows

>Average excess death rates in Florida and Ohio were 76% higher among Republicans than Democrats from March 2020 to December 2021, according to a working paper released last month by the National Bureau of Economic Research. Excess deaths refers to deaths above what would be anticipated based on historical trends.

>A study in June published in Health Affairs similarly found that counties with a Republican majority had a greater share of Covid deaths through October 2021, relative to majority-Democratic counties.

I cant speak for them, but most atheists just dont care. They prioritize other things than religion in their lives and dont need structure or threats to do the right moral thing. Keep your guilt to yourselves.

I get that religion does both good and bad for people and that some people need that.

I do resent having to fund them by paying taxes when they dont. Especially now when so many "churches " are more political action groups than spiritual places.

Ive never had any interest in going to /r/atheist

Show me where vaccines were hyped to "prevent covid." They never were. The pitch was that if you caught covid, your symptoms would most likely be less severe.

A lot of non vaxxed people suffered from the Herman Cain syndrome, and died due to their infections, weakened by comorbidity.

Atheists are a-religion, not necessarily anti religion. It literally means without religion.

True that some are against religion, but so many religions are "anti" other religions that arent their own.

Most people subscribe to a particular religion because they were born into and raised in it.

How many "one true god" can there be?

A true atheist isnt "anti" religion, he just doesnt care to participate.
