There will soon be lots of Covid misnformation / disinformation being posted by Covidiots that still do not understand that most hospitalizations, ICU admissions are those that are not vaccinated.
----------
Vermont has the highest vaccination rate in the country. So why are cases surging?
...Case rates in Vermont residents who are not fully vaccinated are nearly four times higher than in fully vaccinated residents, according to state data. Essex County, the least-vaccinated county in the state, is reporting the highest case rates of any county in Vermont, with 1,022 cases per 100,000 people reported from Nov. 2 to 8. In Grand Isle County, which has the highest vaccination rate in the state, that number was 160.
Statewide, those driving the surge include people in their 20s, who are the least vaccinated among Vermont adults, as well as children ages 5 to 11, who are just now eligible to get vaccinated, Dr. Mark Levine, Vermont's health commissioner, said Tuesday...
The COVID-19 vaccines have proven to be highly effective at preventing serious illness, hospitalization and death. No vaccine is 100% effective, and the waning immunity among residents, especially those who may not have mounted a robust immune response, may be tested by high community spread, experts say.
"You still have pockets of unvaccinated people, even in a highly vaccinated state," said Dr. John Brownstein, an epidemiologist at Boston Children's Hospital and ABC News contributor. "Unvaccinated individuals are the primary host by which the virus will spread and continue to allow for transmission to take place in the community and ultimately create challenges for those that are vaccinated."...
About two-thirds of hospitalized COVID-19 patients in Vermont are unvaccinated, with those in the intensive care unit also largely unvaccinated, state officials said this week. COVID-19 patients make up between 10-15% of ICU patients; if that number increases to around 25%, "then the system could be in jeopardy,"
Vermont is also one of 14 states that have seen an increase of about 10% or more in hospital admissions over the last week, the ABC News analysis found.
Keep Your Eyes on the Prize
Once again, those fully vaccinated must keep their eyes on the prize...preventing Covid Hospital Patient Admissions, preventing Covid ICU admission, and Covid Death.
Covid deniers will try to distract and concentrate on rising infection cases while ignoring it's primarily those that are not fully vaccinated...the same with the Covid Hospitalizations/ICU Admissions.
Every one of the above states has increasing Covid infections but it's mostly those not vaccinated (anti-vaccine folks will not mention this fact) and the same with Covid Hospitalization / ICU Admissions.
It's going to get worst...those not vaccinated will strain our hospital systems "again" after multiple warnings to get vaccinated to end this Pandemic (except those with religious/medical reasons) while a small minority of fully vaccinated will be a low percentage of those hospitalized because we're now entering the cold weather season when people tend to come together indoor.
Too many anti-vaccine folks out there spreading Covid misinformation / disinformation as they did when the first Pandemic started.
In addition, these states have taken advantage of approved antiviral therapeutic treatment centers for Covid that are free.
The state that's surprising me is California because I didn't know it had large not vaccinated communities within the high vaccination overall population.

- In fact, most will concentrate on the number of Covid infections and ignore the number of hospitalization and ICU admission...a common tactic I've seen since the Delta Variant arrived to the United States. Another common tactic, these Covidis spread the misinformation by quoting anonymous individuals on Facebook, Twitter, or some other social media platform.

- Covid infections of those fully vaccinated have increased about 30% in Vermont but still far less than the 3x more increase in those not vaccinated...due to waning immunity in the vaccines and in natural immunity from a prior Covid infection.
