Again, we're in this situation because people are listening to political talk while ignoring the doctors and scientists. I have little doubt that Biden contributed to some vaccine hesitancy with his comments. Let's ignore Biden's, Trump's, Kamala's, and DeSantis' opinions on the vaccine and start listening to the scientific consensus.
The same anti-vaxxers who point out Biden's comments before the vaccine was available also consider Biden a serial liar who cannot be trusted.
That’s great news - hopefully folks will understand that this number will pretty much only go higher as the vaccination rate goes up. As someone said - hopefully we get to a point where vaccination is so ubiquitous that the vast majority of hospitalizations are among the vaccinated. Ideally the vaccine works so well we don’t even have that but it does seems once we get through this that Covid deaths will be like Flu deaths - always with us.
I'm in Mexico watching the Ft. Lauderdale NBC affiliate. They have their icu at zero vaccinated.

More and more stories coming out like this. Truly sad how they don't get it until it's too late. I'd much rather get the shot and not need it than the other way around.
Obviously cant blame immigrants for all the spread, but they also have to be contributing quite a bit.
Democrats and Biden have nobody to blame but themselves for this Covid immigration issue. Make them take the vaccine or leave the country.
Totally agree with this. The fact that the anti-vax crowd is using this as a crutch to not implement reasonable policies on a local level defies logic.
Sure, but it’s not THAT surprising. It’s what our politicians do on both sides.
The message is working. I've started seeing posts in these threads about how dangerous the immigrants are. Didn't really see that angle until the last month or so.
Correct. 0 reason they shouldn't be required to have a vaccine on encounter at the border.
100% remember this. It was absolutely a common fear and talking point in left-wing circles. It was stated on this very board. And no, I’m not going to search for quotes and links. Too lazy - and I was there and already know it happened.
Absolutely. Harris put a lot of doubt out there early regardless of the revisionist history being attempted now.
Was there reporting of positive cases being let through the border months ago?
We scream "follow the science" for a year, but when the science doesn't paint a pretty picture we call it deflecting from the real issue.
Nope. Its never about the issue at hand. They had me going on the science angle for a little bit though.
Lol. Why? So you can try and revise the quotes and put them in the best light possible?
Usually it all got blamed on Trump, unfortunately for them it’s time for Biden to own what a failure and incapable leader he’s been. How has he not convinced everyone to get vaccinated and defeated this already….just as they expected of Trump?
Lets pretend Kamala Harris made those comments.
The defense would be something like this..."You see here Kamala isnt saying she is opposed to vaccines. She is simply opposed to the poor messaging surrounding the vaccines. Please show me an exact quote of Kamala saying that she is anti vaccines 100%."
Are there prominent democrat politicians currently spreading anti vaccine propaganda?

The border has never been an easy situation. Adding covid to the mix makes it even more complicated, IMO
Immigration is a complicated issue. Making sure that everyone who shows up at the border gets vaccinated or they go home is not a complicated issue.
The border is complicated - requiring anybody crossing to be vaccinated should be an easy decision.
