⚠️📣 Remember 4 wks ago when @DLeonhardt posted his "Red Covid" story citing my data showing the death rate since June was 47/100K where Trump received >70% of the vote vs. just 10/100K where he received <32%?

See that highlighted sentence at the end? 1/
nytimes.com/2021/09/27/bri…
Here's the graph he was referring to. He took the average of the 1st & 2nd brackets to get the "10/100K" estimate since he was trying to match <30% to >70%. 2/
WELL, it's been exactly 4 weeks since then, and guess what? Yes, the gap has indeed kept growing since then: acasignups.net/21/10/25/weekl…

I had an incident which wasn't nearly as bad as this, but in the 4th grade, I was in the "gold reading group." We had started reading a new book when my family left the state for a week's vacation (I think it was for my cousin's Bat Mitzvah or something). 1/
Since I was gonna miss a week of school, the teacher gave me the full week's worth of assignments/etc, including reading the next couple of chapters of the book.

I enjoyed the book so much I read the whole thing while on vacation.

When I got back the following Monday... 2/
...my teacher found out I had read the *entire* book, and instead of praising me, KICKED ME OUT OF THE "GOLD" GROUP (and into the "Bronze" group) for reading ahead.

Apparently she'd planned on discussing foreshadowing that week to see if we could guess what would happen next. 3/

This is starting to sound less like the Crow tragedy and more like the Twilight Zone: The Movie tragedy.
For those too young to remember: The feature film version of The Twilight Zone consisted of an anthology of 4 short films. One of the four stories was directed by John Landis (Animal House, Blues Brothers, Trading PLaces, etc.)
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twilight_…
This segment was about a racist/bigot who finds himself experiencing hate/fear as a Jew in Germany during the Holocaust, a Black man being hunted by the KKK, and as a Vietnamese man being fired at during the Vietnam War.

📣 📣🧵 NATIONAL 2022 #ACA premium rate changes: +3.9% on average, but VAST majority will pay FAR less thanks to the #AmRescuePlan!
acasignups.net/21/10/16/natio…
As of yesterday, I finally wrapped up analyzing the 2022 individual & small group health insurance market premium rate filings for all 50 states + DC.

As of this writing, I have the average *preliminary* rate changes for every state, & the *approved* changes for 19 of them. 2/
Once the remaining 32 states are locked in, the national weighted average rate increase will likely be a point or two lower, but as of right now it's around +3.9%.

This ranges from ⬇️4.8% in Arizona to ⬆️ 15.5% in New Mexico. Individual carriers vary greatly as usual. 3/

Chilling: Mississippi is just 100 deaths away from COVID having killed 1 out of every 300 residents of the state.
Meanwhile, here’s where things stand nationally:
UPDATE: Re the racial factor: Here's the county-level COVID death rate since 6/30 for MS based on what % of the pop. is Black, according to the 2020 Census.

Note that this is based on what % of the *total* population is Black, not what % of deaths are among the Black population. Image

📣 WEEKLY UPDATE: U.S. #COVID19 Vaccination levels by COUNTY & Partisan Lean:
acasignups.net/21/10/12/weekl…
Once Again: America in One Image: Image
Having said that, it's worth noting that both the R2 and the Slope appear to have plateaued, and have even dropped slightly.

This was bound to start happening eventually as the most-vaxxed counties start bumping up against their thresholds (until 5-11 yr olds are eligible): ImageImage
