𧔠Scores of people have called my attention to the new NBER study by @paulgp, @jwswallace and @jasonlschwartz confirming that COVID deaths have been MUCH higher among Republicans than Democrats since the moment the vaccines became widely available. 1/

The NY Times story links to this post of mine from last fall: acasignups.net/21/10/14/weekl⊠
This morning I noted that the first week of 2021 (Omicron) looks very different than the last 6 months of 2021 (Delta).
First 2 graphs: Case/Death rates from 7/01/21 - 12/31/21
Second 2 graphs: Case/Death rates for the first 6 days of 2022 (w/projections for the full month):
First 2 graphs: Case/Death rates from 7/01/21 - 12/31/21
Second 2 graphs: Case/Death rates for the first 6 days of 2022 (w/projections for the full month):
When looked at by *vaccination rate* it's a similar story, but far less dramatic of a shift (so far): Case rates are actually *higher* in the most-vaxxed counties, but death rates are still much higher in the least-vaxxed counties...just less so than during the Delta wave.
Again, the second set of graph only include the first 6 days of January; each additional day of data can shift these around dramatically. And of course the new wave hit the big, densely-populated cities first (as prior waves have) so it makes sense that they'll get slammed first.
Well this doesn't bode well: Neither Florida, New York, Georgia or Michigan have had any new cases/deaths added at @Worldometers today yet.
Well, now they have anyway...
Up to 438K now with just 3 states left to report (WA, ID, AK). A few like CA & TX may have additional updates later this evening as well.
Any news outlet who allows journalists to say (unquestioned) that there's no evidence wearing a mask lowers the risk of infection, when the scientific community almost unanimously says it protects others...

Get a more concrete feel for how urgent it is to slow #COVID19 by everyone wearing masks NOW, from visual simulations in this 4-min video. Masking protects your communityânot just you #UniversalMasking #masks4all #wearafuckingmask #maskupnow
Been working round the clock since Feb on the urgency of universal masking w/multidisciplinary team of @guypgoldstein @AlexeyMorgunov @V_alien @AnnaRotkirch âtheoretical predictive modeling, empirical evaluation, public policy. Key recommends from white paper & research article:
1. Masking should be mandatory or strongly recommended for the general public when in public transport and public spaces, for the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic

Itâs time to start a movement to get more people to Wear Fucking Masks. We need to dispel the myth that mask wearing in public is only for people in Asia. #WearAFuckingMask #WeekendProject wearafuckingmask.com 1/
Background: I lived through SARS in 2003 and was one of those people that didnât wear a Fucking mask:

Fucking surgical masks keep you from spraying droplets on other people when you talk, cough or sneeze. These droplets might contain Fucking viruses which will Fucking infect other people. #WearAFuckingMask wearafuckingmask.com 3/
