"SNIP.....

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) received a blunt reality check on Thursday after claiming he was puzzled by people who are opting not to receive a COVID-19 vaccine.

“I’m perplexed by the reluctance of some to get vaccinated, totally perplexed,” McConnell told reporters, per CNN’s Ana Cabrera, as vaccination rates slow down nationwide.

Critics suggested McConnell look at his own party, whose members have for months routinely downplayed the threat of the virus that has now killed at least 4 million people worldwide. More than 600,000 people have died in the U.S. alone.

6. What Is The Total U. S. Death Toll From Covid...

The cable news shows used to display that number 24/7. I haven't seen it now for a while.

They should also display the cases, hospitalizations and deaths attributed to the unvaccinated and show the percentages of vaccinated to the unvaccinated.
