GOP-Led States Handled COVID Best: Study

…New York, California, New Jersey, and Illinois — Democrat-led states — were among the worst in dealing with the coronavirus, performing "poorly on every measure," the CUP report said.

Thirteen Republican-led states were among the top 15 in the study, which compared state performance on such metrics as the economy, education, and mortality from the virus, and examined how states and their respective governments handled the pandemic response.

"Shutting down their economies and schools was by far the biggest mistake governors and state officials made during COVID, particularly in blue states," Stephen Moore, co-founder of the Committee to Unleash Prosperity, told Fox News Digital.

"We hope the results of this study will persuade governors not to close schools and businesses the next time we have a new virus variant."

Govs. Gavin Newsom, D-Calif., and J.B. Pritzker, D-Ill., as well as former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, D-N.Y., directed states that "had high age-adjusted death rates; they had high unemployment and significant GDP losses, and they kept their schools shut down much longer than almost all other states," the CUP report found…

…The CUP study also found no correlation between states that enacted stringent travel, vocation, and dining restrictions with lower death totals, Fox News reported.

"The study verifies other studies which have found that locking down businesses, stores, churches, schools, and restaurants had almost no impact on health outcomes across states," the CUP report found, Fox News said.

"States with strict lockdowns had virtually no better performance in COVID death rates than states that remained mostly open for business."..,

Enough said. On all the issues from lockdowns to mask mandates, to vaccine mandates/passports red states did a much better job. Blue states almost universally sucked in every regard in how they did things and the choices they made. A bunch of power hungry wannabe dictator mayors and governors.

 

In a couple of weeks it will be two years since the great lockdown vs re opening battles between blue and red began and clearly red was right. The worst states in the country were New York, Illinois, Michigan, and California. Among the very best were South Dakota, Nebraska, Florida.

 

Yep, all those experts whom let their new found power go to their collective heads.

 

And most of them to this day can’t just let it go…

 

DUHH!!!!! It was a GOP STUDY !!!!

 

They studied Economics, Education, Mortality. The Red states vastly outperformed the Blue states.

 

Tell us where the study is in error or move on with your Logical Fallacy.

 

No, it was a non partisan group that did the study. Their research and numbers are sound and based on solid data

 

The left wants us to feel guilt that economics was ever even studied or considered in such a study. Well, I don’t feel it. I’m glad I live in a part of California that lived like were were South Dakota instead.

 

Lol wow right wing group says republicans states did better. That is shocking! Lol
Btw they have a failing score on charity navigate so don’t give them any money. Of course their ran by a guy worth over 400 million ….so why would you?

 

Nothing non partisan about them lol

 

No, they are ALL supply side, no taxation cultists.

LOL.........not a chance that they are non partisan

 

And the classic GIGO applies to the OP.

 

How are they listed in their organizational IRS filing?

 

How are they listed on IRS filings that show 97% of their revenue goes to "admin?"

 

Anything to say about their research and the real numbers they worked on? They are accurate numbers on the covid counts, academic outcomes, and economic data regardless what you think of who they are. Thanks go to Fox News and Newsmax for reporting on the results of the research.

 

I have no idea, do you?

 

How much of the 3% of revenue that "admin" spared went to the study?

 

Anything to say about their "real numbers"......yeah, they skewed them to their liking.

 

A charitable non profit. Something they couldn’t be if they were truly partisan.

 

Then prove it!

 

I have no idea. I’m just glad that they did the research and informed the news media of the results.

 

That just means they can advocate directly for candidates. Doesn’t mean they can’t promote a partisan political agenda.

 

Actually, the onus is on YOU to prove your laughable OP.
