WASHINGTON (AP) A disservice to the country. Inaccurate disinformation. Literally killing people.
For months, the Biden White House refrained from criticizing Republican officials who played down the importance of coronavirus vaccinations or sought to make political hay of the federal governments all-out effort to drive shots into arms. Not any longer.
With the COVID-19 vaccination rate plateauing across the country, the White House is returning fire at those they see as spreading harmful misinformation or fear about the shots.
When South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster tried this week to block door-to-door efforts to drive up the vaccination rate in his state, White House press secretary Jen Psaki did not mince words in her reaction.
The failure to provide accurate public health information, including the efficacy of vaccines and the accessibility of them to people across the country, including South Carolina, is literally killing people, so maybe they should consider that, she said Friday.

I know a lot of people that dont have either.
If these assholes get more than 30% of the vote next time I might have to leave the damned country.

So, the idea that the Biden admin is sending people door-to-door as part of a plot to take peoples guns away in order to force-vaccinate them is a big talking point on the right, and its leading to actual threats to shoot the people who are doing door-to-door vaccine outreach.
