9. Part of it is the work culture in the US for mixing "sick days" and "personal days".
You have no idea how many people I've known in my 15+ years of working that they rather go to work while "sick" instead of wasting/using their precious "sick days". And that is an issue across the board with democrats, independent and republicans alike. I think, in general, democrats are better with COVID because we take it more seriously. But my aunt who works at a hospital, who basically pushed my dad into getting vaccinated and boosted (even though he keeps saying Omicron is no big deal and is weaker than flu) and was a big fan for masking and vaccines. She was sick with flu like symptoms during the Christmas time and she still chose to go to the hospital to work and then came to our home for a Christmas dinner. We got lucky as none of us came down with COVID so she might really just had a flu but I was so mad she came to our house sick.
