I can't stress enough how wrong and disingenuous the most recent wave of COVID revisionism is. The *only period* when Democratic counties had higher death rates was April-May 2020. From June 2020 onwards, Republican laxity and denialism were the most powerful force driving deaths.

MUST READ: AJI’s @walkerbragman.bsky.social interviewed a dozen people working inside the National Institutes of Health about their new leader, Director Jay Bhattacharya. They candidly painted a bleak picture of an agency, considered the crown jewel of the U.S., in dramatic decline.
