It's bc he thought it would affect the cities (where dems live) way more, which of course he had zero issues with because he has only child feelings. By the time his version of thinking was vaguely able to realize that unvaxxed people (his cultists) died way more even in rural areas, his stupid smelly broken brain wouldn't allow him to think he was wrong about something. So he started throwing random words (like hydroxychloroquin) at the wall in hopes that something would work, and even though it didn't he couldn't go back on anything he'd ever vomited out of his piehole.
Basically maintaining his false image of himself as someone literally incapable of error is way more important for him than anything else, otherwise he'd have to confront a lifetime of failure. That'd be a monumental task for even the most resilient people, let alone one of the weakest and most pathetic cowards ever to have lived.
