Abstract

voters went for Trump in the 2020 election. And get this: Only 4.6% of its adult population has been vaccinated for Covid.I get that people can be hesitant about a vaccine that was rolled out so quickly. I recall from my youth the FDA approving a drug called thalidomide, which just so happened to induce flipper limbs in pregnant women’s offspring who took the drug during their pregnancy.But the current “vaccine hesitancy?” I’m not down with it.It doesn’t appear that people are dying from the jab.

It’s called Banks County, Georgia. Just another sleepy, sparsely-populated area in a Southern state. Ya know — the kind of place you drive through at the speed limit so the local redneck sheriff doesn’t generate revenue behind your indiscretion.

But Banks County has an odd distinction. Fully 88% of its voters went for Trump in the 2020 election. And get this: Only 4.6% of its adult population has been vaccinated for Covid.

I get that people can be hesitant about a vaccine that was rolled out so quickly. I recall from my youth the FDA approving a drug called thalidomide, which just so happened to induce flipper limbs in pregnant women’s offspring who took the drug during their pregnancy.

But the current “vaccine hesitancy?” I’m not down with it.
