What were their ages?
Were they male, female, or other?
Were they healthy or did they have underlying health conditions?(over weight, copd, diabetes, etc).
Would they have lived if they had been vaccinated?

Until these are known, the rest really doesn't matter.

Desperate clutching at straws. The important factor, that of age, was accounted for.

:facepalm: Clearly sex and uderlying health conditions matter quite a bit, along with age.

"Although many studies have been conducted on this virus, only a few focused on the correlation between underlying health conditions and mortality rate. Among the study participants, 37.6% had underlying health conditions, with a 4 times higher risk of death than patients without underlying diseases. Although the incidence of COVID-19 was similar between men and women, we observed an approximately 2-fold mortality rate in men (64.9%) compared with women (35.1%). This suggests that COVID-19 could be more severe in men, and this is consistent with the findings of Clark et al.2 and McCullough et al.15 Furthermore, the mortality rates of women and men with underlying diseases were 5.5 and 3.4 times higher than the mortality rates of women and men without underlying diseases, respectively."

You're grasping at straws out of futile desperation.

If people who avoided preventative measures died at a significantly higher rate than people who abided them, what's the logical conclusion?

When you learn how to face palm correctly then you can post to me and expect an answer. When you are the one that has demonstrated ignorance you really should not be using a facepalm.

It's very likely there are just more older Republicans , so they are more at risk regardless of getting seriously I'll, whether they took the jab or not.

So, why get vaccinated?

Because it significantly reduces your risk of dying or being hospitalized because of COVID.

And if you think your whole "most people dying of COVID got vaccinated" thing suggests otherwise, I suggest you track down your high school math teachers and apologize for not paying attention to - or at least not understanding how to apply - what they taught you.

The study considered age effects, and found that older Republicans were at significantly higher risk of dying from COVID than older Democrats.
