The guy in the video was admitted because he had COVID, which is the topic of the OP? Of course not every case leads to a hospitalization but it sure is trending upwards in the last few weeks.

You stated that his bed (in the COVID ward) would be better used for someone who really needed it. Like who? Other people with COVID that you think are complete assholes?

It would be funny if it wasn’t so sad. People not getting vaccinated causing covid to linger longer than it should have is one of the worst things the internet has ever done. I bet that guy saw a meme on Facebook and formed his opinion there.

Would be pretty hard to make Louisiana people look stupid if, you know, they weren't stupid.

Not taking anti-vax advice from someone who shares images by taking a picture of their computer screen with their phone.

Don't worry, the government is actually telling all social media companies what posts need to be removed and what users need to be banned. All the lefty posters here support this type of government action unless it's not their people in power, of course.

The news is going to blame everything on rural white Americans. But the reality is that they are more likely to have been vaccinated than African Americans. And Louisiana has a large black population, so you should expect its numbers to lag.

Yep. We have to dance around that statistic just like every other major statistic that affects quality of life in this country.

sad to see David, a lafayette baw now living in nyc, turn heel like that to try to embarrass his fellow louisianans.

i guess the propaganda is more important than where you came from.

If only everyone on earth would get the flu shot every autumn so the flu wouldn’t linger and kill 50,000 Americans every winter.

See how stupid that sounds.

They missed the opportunity to spit in the face of this "journalist". They are subhuman filth that serve no constructive purpose.

Rural whites have been ridiculed by the our media and entertainment industry a lot lately. They see a lot of people with their world view be target of cancel culture and social media bans while also being ridiculed as conspiracy theorists. It wasn't long ago that the idea that the origins of Covid-19 might have come from a research lab was dismissed as pure conspiracy "nonsense". A media that does that while reporting on "firey but mostly peaceful" protests, "Russian Collusion", and "the most transparent election ever" is not worthy of being trusted.

It would help society if more of them got vaccinated, but I can see why there is still some skepticism and reluctance. They simply don't trust the media and our government. Can you blame them?

And I think it's also plainly obvious that blacks have even more reason not to trust their government. Which explains why they are even more likely to avoid the vaccine than rural white Americans.

I mean the guy looked pretty dumb.


Couldn't give a reason for not getting the vaccine beyond "They want me to get it, so I'm not getting it"

Starting now, if you are a white person that is in the hospital with Covid....don't talk to the fricking press.

He interviewed three Louisianans. The guy was the only idiot of the trio.

“I’ve already had china virus” is a pretty good reason
