This is where we're at now. I cribbed this data from the gov't website:
COVID-19 vaccinations data
COVID-19 CASES BY VACCINATION STATUS
Date___________Age______Unvaccinated_Unvaccinated Cases_____Fully vaccinated_____Fully vaccinated Cases
__________________________Rate/100000____________________________Rate/100000

I'd like to better understand what numbers they're using to develop the rate, if they don't know the number of cases.
At this point I assume that the difference between the rates and the hard quantity of cases, 5.63 vs 1.11 & 195 vs 126,
is due to the number/percentage of people who have been vaccinated.
The thing I'd like to point out is the unvaccinated 80+ rate, which is significantly higher than the others.
Is there something that we can do better to get this number down? Or is this considered acceptable?
