FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (KNWA/KFTA) — A new study ranks Arkansas as the 2nd least safe state during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The personal finance website WalletHub compared the 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia across five key metrics, including vaccination rates, hospitalizations and deaths, positive testing, and rates of COVID-19 transmission.

Arkansas ranked second to last at 50th overall, behind only Missouri.

The Natural State ranked near the bottom of nearly every category.

45th – Vaccination Rate
48th – Positive Testing Rate
50th – Hospitalization Rate
46th – Death Rate
50th – Transmission Rate
Arkansas reported its highest number of new cases of COVID-19 in months on Wednesday, with over 1,000 new infections documented in one day.

1. I wonder if the dumb fucks in Arkansas, Missouri, Mississippi, and so on will ever catch onto ....

.... the fact that the Republicans, Fox, their Pastors, and so on want them to get sick and or die in
order to hurt Joe Biden? We need an ad on TV/radio/internet/bill boards/newspapers in red areas
that tells "the folks" the truth. Vote Republican and you or your family or your friends might very
well end up dead.

2. as one who lives in Arkanas I can attest

that many, if not most of these people are complete idiots. There is a sign (I should have taken a picture) that says "Masks are Obidience Liberty once lost will never be regained" and once had a giant tfg flag which has been taken down in the past couple of months.

even people that I once thought were fairly smart won't vaccinate. I'm stunned. I'm vaccinated, wear a mask and stay home as much as possible. My beloved was going to the gym but then they stopped requiring people to be vaccinated to come in. I have no idea why they are so stupid.

3. As I often point out, now one ever moved to Arkansas to have their consciousness raised.

4. One of Hillary Clinton's friends cried...

... when she traveled with Hillary to Arkansas, after she married Bill Clinton, upon observing some of the people there.

The friend described the crying during some pro-Hillary movie made by Michael Moore, and I was thinking, "Why did you include that part in your movie, idiot?! To make her seem even more 'elitist' than before?!"

The friend was just being honest, though, and apparently accurate with her emotional response.
