actual title:
Minnesota’s second year of COVID, by the numbers

Lots of graphs covering several aspects. Taking just one of them:
What struck me is that for the UNVAXXED:
2021 was 3 times more deadly than 2020.
That’s where the other big change from 2021 came in: the new, more dangerous variants.
... In late November 2020, during the deadly fall wave, Minnesota was averaging about one death per day per 100,000 unvaccinated people.
In late November 2021, with the delta variant, Minnesota was averaging about three deaths per day per 100,000 unvaccinated people.
There's a graph with 2020 and 2021 by month for comparison with each other.
Omicron was not a factor in Minnesota in November.
Death data is not complete for 2021 (although it should be pretty much complete for November deaths) ...
Comparing death rates is tricky because it often takes weeks for deaths to be formally reported. So we won’t have a final death count for 2021 until a month or more into 2022.
Then for the
VAXXED, I know this is old news that the death rate is much lower for the vaxxed than the unvaxxed, but anyway
The death rate among vaccinated Minnesotans was about 0.22 deaths per day per 100,000 people.
Compared to 3 per day per 100,000 for the unvaxxed in 2021.
