I thought that was the most likely potential explanation at first but the guy who originally posted this says he already ruled out that explanation because he only looked at the serious adverse reaction data and he claims there is no major political state by state difference when it comes to the mandatory reporting of these severe reactions by doctors.
The guy who originally posted this has a different hypothesis on what is happening.
He thinks atleast 8 percent of people got saline instead of the vax in those Atlantic coastal states.
His rationale is that some of the most powerful people in America reside in those coastal Atlantic states.
You know I love a good conspiracy, but this one doesn't pass the test.
There isn't a difference in reporting requirements but it's the same as gender discrimination covering discrimination against men. Yes, but actually no. The words on paper say one thing but the actual practice is another.
If they were going to give powerful people saline, they'd just give the powerful people saline.
You also need to see if there's a difference in the vaccination rate and population of under 30 year old males, because they have the most risk of serious reaction.
Massachusetts old money bluebloods that vacation in Bar Harbour?
Secret way to make sure they have a "control" population of people who think they're vaxed but really only got liquid Placebo? To compare with those who admit to be totally unvaxxed? (ie, a way to study the "Placebo effect". And yes, Placebo is actually the trade name for sugar pills, and is even listed in the "big blue book of drugs" that doctors duck out on you to look at when they need to prescribe you for something weird.)
Placebo (from Latin: "I shall please") is the generic name. Brand name was "Cebocap". Fancy looking capsuiles, one side blue, the other side clear, with lots of little dots inside. Active ingredients, per the manufacturer, were sugar and starch.
I had a patient taking those once, back when I was an intern. Doctor had told her it was a narcotic, and she not only had relief of her pain from them, she didn't even have withdrawal symptoms after taking massive amounts of Vicodin for long enough to have been well and truly hooked. We had to be very careful what we said to this patient. That kinda thing would never fly today when you can look things up instantly on your phone, but back in the 90s you could get away with more.
Minnesota is definitely not a red state. Contrary to popular belief, it's one of the bluest states in the union. It might even be more of a Democrat stronghold than New York. Minnesotans are who kicked off the summer of George.
I think this can be explained by politics.
The states where the vax is God will chalk it up to literally anything else, while red states will report fairly.

Hard for me to say which explanation is reality.

Someone said something.
