Are the unvaccinated morons? Let's look at the stats...

Let's see if there is some positive correlation between a state's vaccination rate and the educational attainment of the people living in those states (educational attainment as defined by percentage of people with a bachelor's or higher).

Starting with the state with the lowest vaccination rate (people who have received at least 1 dose):
Educational ranking 1-50 (1 highest, 50 lowest, states only DC and territories omitted)

1) Alabama -- Vaccination rate 33.3% Educational attainment ranking 43
2) Mississippi -- Vaccination 33.4% Education: 50
3) Arkansas -- Vaccination 35% Education: 46
4) Wyoming -- Vaccination: 35.7% Education: 40
5) Louisiana -- Vaccination: 35.8% Education: 44
6) Idaho -- Vaccination: 36.6% Education: 38
7) Georgia -- Vaccination rate -- 37.1 Education: 29
8) Tennessee -- Vaccination rate 38% Education: 34
9) Utah: Vaccination rate -- 38.1% Education: 23
10) West Virginia -- Vaccination rate: 38.7 Education: 47

Surprise! Surprise! It seems that the states with the lowest vaccination rates also seem to cluster around the bottom in educational attainment.

Trump is proud he "saved 100 million lives" with "his" vaccine, and also happy that Americans aren't taking it during Biden.

How hard it must be a health official in a red state. Even before Covid the overall health of red states was already low, now the issue of Covid only exasperated that. And these people think they can make America great again when they can’t even keep themselves healthy.

Wait there is more... the state does not want minors vaccinated for anything...

Tennessee abandons vaccine outreach to minors — not just for COVID-19
https://www.oakridger.com/story/new...outreach-minors-not-just-covid-19/7928701002/https://www.oakridger.com/story/new...outreach-minors-not-just-covid-19/7928701002/

The Tennessee Department of Health will halt all adolescent vaccine outreach – not just for coronavirus, but all diseases – amid pressure from Republican state lawmakers, according to an internal report and agency emails obtained by the Tennessean. If the health department must issue any information about vaccines, staff are instructed to strip the agency logo off the documents.

The health department will also stop all COVID-19 vaccine events on school property, despite holding at least one such event this month. The decisions to end vaccine outreach and school events come directly from Health Commissioner Dr. Lisa Piercey, the internal report states.

Additionally, the health department will take steps to ensure it no longer sends postcards or other notices reminding teenagers to get their second dose of the coronavirus vaccines. Postcards will still be sent to adults, but teens will be excluded from the mailing list so the postcards are not “potentially interpreted as solicitation to minors,” the report states.

These changes to Tennessee’s vaccination strategy, detailed in an COVID-19 report distributed to health department staff on Friday, then reiterated in a mass email on Monday, illustrate how the state government continues to dial back efforts to vaccinate minors against coronavirus. This state's approach to vaccinations will not only lessen efforts to inoculate young people against coronavirus, and could also hamper the capacity to vaccinate adults and protect children from other infectious diseases.

And these changes will take effect just as the coronavirus pandemic shows new signs of spread in Tennessee. After months of declining infections, the average number of new cases per day has more than doubled in the past two weeks – from 177 to 418. The average test positivity rate has jumped from 2.2% to 5.4% in the same time period.
