Research was just announced that Fox news viewers aka republicans versus are more likely to dismiss the pandemic, not wear masks, etc then non-Fox viewers (like CNN viewers for example). There is no real way to determine how many people were sickened and/or died by Fox news down playing, and even calling it a Democratic hoax, in the early days of the pandemic. The moron in chief even agreed. He got his "cure worse than the disease" approach from Fox to downplay the need for a lock down in the early days. Now the US is one of the worst places in the world for the pandemic. Fox news also convinced the moron in chief to promote the hydroxychloroquine as a cure and it turns out it makes things worse.
I guess the only good thing about Faux news viewer/republicans is maybe there won't be so many after the pandemic. Wait; I guess saying that is too mean. Maybe I can help...lets manufacture millions of masks with "Make America Great Again" on them. That might help get them to join in and save theirs and ours lives.
One thing that graphic does point out...there is a a whole new meaning to "red" states
