Vaccination rates per states versus 7-day average positivity rates

 

I do not support mandated vaccination, nor vouch for the  collective safety of all such (yet I do not oppose all vaccines), and hold that preventable poor health is the overall real problem in Covid-assigned deaths. However, in engaging in ongoing research on this issue I compiled the  following comparison of vaccination rates compared with positivity rates that I found,  though the 7-day scope of  positivity rates should be larger.  And remember that (speaking of scope) eternity is what is most important. 

States ranked by percentage of population fully vaccinated: Sept. 9, according to the CDC's data (from beckershospitalreview.com compilation )		States ranked by COVID-19 test positivity rates: 7-day moving averages as of Sept. 8, according to Johns Hopkins Coronavirus Resource Center (from beckershospitalreview.com compilation)

For what it is of use. Please forgive any errors. Note more than one state ranks as #1.

[goodnesswins]

Interesting...Alabama

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

Explain in layman’s terms what this means.

[alloysteel]

In places there seems to be an almost inverse relationship of positivity rates with vaccination rates.. There is enough “slack” in the numbers, though, so it may be regarded as simply random as well.

But many odd effects appear when correlation is attempted the first few times. There may be another stray fact or two floating through the statistics that is not being accurately recorded, or if it is, is being dismissed for now.

[goodnesswins]

And, second comment...I do NOT trust “testing” numbers...

[brianr10]

Positivity rates do no seem to correlate strongly with vaccinations.

[JayGalt]

Thank you for your work & for sharing the results.

In view of todays American Thinker article “Questioning false positive COVID tests in hospitals” Excerpt:”There’s a strong possibility that many of the alleged COVID cases in hospitals are not COVID at all but are, instead, the result of the hospitals using the PCR test, which has a high failure rate.”, I wonder about the validity of the CDC numbers.

I fear we are truly in Wonderland where nothing is what it appears to be.

[mikelets456]

The way I read it is vaccination rates have very little to do with case rates. For exampl, AL has the lowest vaccination rate but lowest case rates and Maine one of the highest vax rates but ranked closer to the top (18) with cases.

[daniel1212]

" Explain in layman’s terms what this means. "

It basically means that, other relevant aspects being fairly equal (which of course they are not) then if vaccines are effectual then there should be an overall corresponding smaller % of positive Covid rates. Explain more later as now I want to help fix a SUV.

[ClearCase_guy]

The jab is useless, or, perhaps, detrimental.

[muskah]

Alabama should be 12/100k not 0 according to worldometers. Nice way to present data if it were accurate. Did not check other states

[kosciusko51]

Yeah, that doesn’t seem right.

[binreadin]

Thanks for the work on this. Unfortunately, we know tests are faulty and yield false positives. Second thing to note is that many Covid deaths are the result of inappropriate treatment both early on (not offering HCQ, Ivermectin or Regeneron), and in the hospital. Patients are rushed onto vents, given Remdesivir which kills their kidneys, and denied Ivermectin and high-dose IV Vitamin C.

[SeekAndFind]

What’s with Florida? Why have they stopped the daily reporting?

[discostu]

Not much actually, it’s an apples and oranges comparison. The vaccination rate is by whole populace, the positive test rate is only by people who got tested. So people who have no reason to get tested aren’t covered in the second stat, so we don’t really know what the general population rate is. Which has been the statistical problem throughout all this.

[Repealthe17thAmendment]

It must be that Iowa and Alabama have not reported. They cannot be 0.

Looks to me as though there are other variables besides vaccinations that affect the positivity rate.

[bhl]

Nice. Would be nice to see hospitalizations and deaths included and percentage vaccinated:unvaccinated.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Thanks for collecting the data. The trends are a lot easier to see if you graph it. Some of the data labels are hard to read and it's almost impossible to move individual labels in Excel.

I was surprised at the strong correlation between Vax Rate and Pos Rate. R2 would be even higher if I took out the outliers ID, MS, TN, OK, and KS. I wonder why those five states are outliers.

Alas, my own Idaho ranks the worst in the country and here in North Idaho we are even worse.

[fireman15]

Thanks for compiling this.

Any place that was an early hotspot for the now dominant “Delta variant” is now seeing “Daily New Cases” from Covid in rapid decline. Despite being much more transmissible and the “experimental vaccines” being basically useless against it the “death rate” did not spike up to previous levels. After seeing what happened in Great Britton, and India this was predicted by numerous experts.

In most places in the US we are already on the downward side of the Delta wave. Biden’s latest Covid proclamation was purely for political reasons so that they can claim victory over a trend that was already in place.

[SeekAndFind]

Of greater concern is NOT the positivity rates ( we already know the huge error rates of the PCR tests and the over 99.7% recovery of infected people) but the HOSPITALIZATION and DEATH rates.

I’d be grateful if we can show a similar table for HOSPITALIZATION and Deaths due to Covid broken down by states.
