I don’t understand why they are like this. I know things are fucked and there are currently not enough vaccines, but I’ve had to scold several liberals bitching about this. Why are they so obsessed with moralism and meritocracy? It’s always about what groups are most deserving of something and god forbid we can’t all have anything nice, or good standards of living because somone undeserving might gasp take advantage. Anyway, that’s all I just needed to vent.
It may have something to do with data collected so far comparing outcomes in the two groups, or it may have to do with rate of transmission out of each group. Smokers are going to keep smoking, and those smoke particles are going to carry virions into the lungs of anybody who can smell them. Every asthmatic I know is staying inside as much as possible.
