Aggregate numbers like this don't lie. The data is too compelling. Globally, this isn't "a pandemic of the unvaccinated." Americans should be asking serious questions about what these other countries are doing to keep the pandemic under control--because it sure as heck isn't "herd immunity" via vaccination. Many of these countries share one or more of the following pandemic strategies in common: Ivermectin use, universal masking, regional lockdowns, and track and trace to isolate and quarantine the infected. Perhaps there are other solutions as well being employed, of which we are not aware. The point is our health-care officials, our CDC experts, our politicians, and, yes, our press, should have their hair on fire to find out what these countries are doing that we aren't. Instead, they stand around like mindless drones intoning over and over again: "the vaccine is safe and effective... more people need to be vaccinated....the vaccine is safe and effective... more people..." You get the picture.
It is time for the stagnation to stop. It is time to stop acting like 2,000 deaths a day is inevitable unless the rest of the US gets vaccinated. Global data reveals this narrative to be false. It bears repeating: Americans are more vaccinated than the citizens of the vast majority of countries on the planet and yet we are dying of COVID faster than any other country on the planet. Those who keep perpetrating the lie that lack of vaccination is to blame should be held accountable for the deaths they refuse to take any further effective action to prevent.
