WHY ARE TRUMP VOTING COUNTIES NOT GETTING VACCINATED? I am reading more and more that in areas of the country where Trump did well, the vaccine rollout is not doing well. This confounds me. Is there a connection to politics here? Or what is the other reason? Are we so skeptical of science and scientists after a year of Fauci that we are going to ignore the thing that can get us back to normal? What is it going to take? I m genuinely curious. This graphic took me aback when I saw it. It shows the counties where the vaccination rates are lowest have the caseloads of covid vs the counties with higher vaccination rates have lower caseloads. I understand being cautious but if we were this way in 1954, polio would likely still be running rampant.
The Colorado High School Activities Association announced last week that Broadmoor World Arena will be the new host site for the girls’ volleyball state championships.
The tournament was pushed back to May 12-13, the only available dates for the arena, which is being used as a COVID-19 vaccination site. The original dates were May 10-11.
According to the CHSAA release, El Paso County is working on spectator variances for the event. Official attendance numbers and tournament format will be announced at a later date.
The tournament was originally scheduled to be held at the NORCO Volleyball Facility in Loveland.
“With certain county health departments loosening restrictions and in the interest of accommodating as many spectators as possible, it became apparent that moving the tournament to a different site was the best option,” the CHSAA announcement stated.
