The Scientific American article in which JC quoted was a bit more nuanced then presented (I stumbled across it by accident), and it does cross ethnic lines for those who refuse the vax. Following through on this conjecture, let it be stated that the brightest have low birth rate performance, compounded with "Saving the Earth," from overpopulation & the climate, while the low i.q. may suffer mortality from Covid, but still out-breed the effete big brains, and win the day. That's how Sir Darwin works. Successful adaptation traits win, or what's Dawkins sez.

At the start of the Covid epidemic, before the vaccine was invented, the death rate for black Americans was much higher than that of white Americans, but that is no longer true; today the death rate for white Americans is 14% higher than for black Americans. In another statistic that I think is related, in 2020 Trump only got 46% of the popular vote but 57% of white Americans voted for Trump and it was 63% among non-college educated white voters, and to this day 53% of Republicans believe Donald Trump when he says he won the 2020 election and is the true president of the USA. Even before the epidemic Trump contributed to the anti-scientific anti-vaccine hysteria by claiming that vaccinations cause autism, so it's not surprising that only 56% of Republicans are vaccinated as compared to 70% of Independents and 92% of Democrats. It's also not surprising that the Covid death rate in states that voted for Trump was 38% higher than the death rate in states that voted for Biden. If you look county by county 326 people per 100,000 died of Covid in counties that Trump won versus only 258 in counties Biden won, and the top 10% reddest pro-Trump counties died at a rate that was 6 times higher than the top 10% bluest pro-Biden counties. So there is a clear correlation between belief in Trump and death, but I am unsure which is a cause and which is an effect, I don't know if white people believe in Trump because they're stupid or belief in Trump makes white people stupid. Either way Trump worship has become a death cult.
