Trump voters (Republicans) are older and less healthy. It could just as well be that demographic has more adverse reactions.

  But isn't the whole original point of the vaccine to protect those that are older and less healthy? Younger and healthier are at less risk to serious adverse reactions to Covid, having less comorbidities. Besides that, it seems that adverse reactions to the vaccine tend to skew younger, with the risk of heart issues going up, relative to a covid infection, the younger you are.

    Unless you are under 18 in which the myocarditis numbers are minuscule (due to the lower dose vaccine).

      The lower dosage only started being a thing once the spike in myocarditis was becoming too apparent to deny. Under 18's were eligible for a time to get the full dosage, before they scaled it down. If I remember correctly, Ernesto Ramirez was one of those kids that took a full dose. But yes, you are correct. I still don't think any amount of this vaccine is work the risk for under 18's with no serious health issues. Edit- wow, on a stale thread, my comment was immediately downvoted within seconds of being posted. Is someone using a bot with their account?
