When a COVID infection wave hit the most and least vaccinated states in 2022, the most vaccinated state had the higher COVID case rates and the higher relative death peaks. Whoops!

Executive summary

According to US News & World Report, Wyoming is the least vaccinated state (52.8%) and Rhode Island is the most vaccinated state.

So just for fun, I thought I’d see how these states fared when there was a huge COVID infection outbreak at the start of 2022 that affected both these states.

It turned out that the least vaccinated state had the lower rise in all-cause mortality (1.25 vs. 1.42) vs. avg mortality for the year.

In other words, vaccination appeared to increase all-cause mortality when COVID hit.

However, it might be the case that Rhode Island simply was “hit harder” by the COVID wave with twice as many COVID infections per capita. Or was Rhode Island hit harder because more people were vaccinated and thus more susceptible to infection which is what the Cleveland Clinic study showed very clearly?

By looking at a younger age group, we see a 3X disparity between the two states. The least vaccinated state came out on top.

We have further, and more conclusive, confirmation from an extensive study done by Josh Stirling. There is simply no way for anyone to explain those results which looked at every county in the US.

The bottom line: higher vaccination —> higher deaths for all age groups. That’s why 15-year-olds with heart attacks are now the new normal when they were non-existent before the vaccines rolled out.

Methodology

COVID waves are when the CDC would expect the most vaccinated states to do the best compared to the average death rate for the year. So we'd expect a smaller rise in deaths during a COVID infection wave compared to the deaths over the year.

The biggest COVID death peak is at the start of 2022.

So the method is pretty simple: compare the worst four weeks at the start of 2022 with the average death rate for the year in that state. The winner should have the lowest ratio.

 

CDC database used for calculations

I used the CDC database of weekly deaths by age and state and the visualization tool on the CDC website.

Rhode Island ages 65-74 (Most vaccinated 87.1%)

Worst consecutive 4 weeks are weeks 1-4: (52+66+40+73)/4=57.75 average per week.
Worst 4 week avg/annual avg = 57/40.23=1.42

 

Rhode Island 2022 avg 40.23

Wyoming 65-74 (least vaccinated 52.8%)

Worst consecutive 4 weeks are weeks 1-4: (30+26+27+29)/4=28
Worst 4 week avg/annual avg = 28/22.48=1.25

 

Wyoming 2022 Avg 22.48

45-64 comparison

Maybe we just picked the “wrong” age group.

Let’s try the next age group down which is 45-64 over the same “deadly” period.

Weeks 1-4 avg for Wyoming=(24+23+22+16)/4=21.25
Average for 2022=19.25
Ratio: 21.25/19.25= 1.1

Weeks 1-4 avg for Rhode Island: (50+46+44+31)/4=42.75
Avg for 2022=32.6
Ratio: 42.75/32.6=1.31

Again, Wyoming had the smaller spike among that age group.

Possible explanation for the discrepancy

The only way for a pro-vaxxer to attack this result is to claim that Rhode Island had a COVID infection wave in January 2022, but Wyoming missed the wave.

Let’s check that out…

These are the COVID cases for Rhode Island:

 

Here are the COVID cases for Wyoming:

 

Isn’t this interesting? The pre-vax peak is relatively close to the post-vax peak.

So it was a fair test. Both states had their largest COVID peaks in January. So that was fair.

Misinformation!

[4Liberty]

[Prince of Space]

In before the “that’s because of the unvaccinated ppl…” crowd. Of course, this information clearly shows that wasn’t the case, but when has reality stopped them? 🤣

[Engraved-on-His-hands]

Rhode Island is the second most densely populated state in the United States. Wyoming is the second least densely populated state, and the least densely populated in the lower 48.

I would think that this played a significant role.

[ransomnote]

If there was no vaccine, then population density would explain much/ However there was a ‘vaccine’ pushed as limiting the spread and reducing the chance of becoming ill.

The fact that actually made people more likely to get Covid helped tilt the scales.

[jonrick46]

Population density has much to do with infection rates:

The Top 10 U.S. States and Territories by Population Density Are:

Rank from highest to lowest:

1. District of Columbia (11,295 people per square mile).
2. New Jersey (1263 people per square mile).
3. *Rhode Island (1061 people per square mile).
4. Puerto Rico (960 people per square mile).
5. Massachusetts (901 people per square mile).
6. Connecticut (745 people per square mile).
7. Guam (733 people per square mile).
8. American Samoa (650 people per square mile).
9. US Virgin Islands (649 people per square mile).
10. Maryland (636 people per square mile).

The Ten U.S. States With the Lowest Population Density Are:

Rank from lowest to highest:

1. Alaska (1.3 people per square mile).
2.*Wyoming (6.0 people per square mile).
3. Montana (7.1 people per square mile).
4. North Dakota (11.0 people per square mile).
5. South Dakota (11.3 people per square mile).
6. New Mexico (17.2 people per square mile).
7. Idaho (20.0 people per square mile).
8. Nebraska (24.7 people per square mile).
9. Nevada (26.3 people per square mile).
10. Kansas (35.6 people per square mile).

*Rhode Island and Wyoming are subjects of COVID study

[ransomnote]

Yes, but over half were ‘vaccinated’ and theoretically, unless the ‘vaccines’ were biowarfare, the state with the higher ‘vaccination’ rate should have had uncharacteristically low spread despite it’s population density.

[jonrick46]

You would think that higher vaccine rates would provide the herd immunity in states with high population densities. However, high population densities enable the spread with greater efficiency that outstrips the protection the vaccine affords.

[ransomnote]

That’s fiction unless you can prove it. I have seen research indicating the more vaccine doses, the more likely to get Covid. You have a theory, that’s all.

[jonrick46]

“That’s fiction unless you can prove it. I have seen research indicating the more vaccine doses, the more likely to get Covid.”

You may have read the false claims from a “Gateway Pundit” article titled, “Walgreens Reveals Unvaccinated Have the Lowest Positivity Rate for COVID — Triple and Double Vaxxed Groups Have the Worst Rate” This comes from social media posts using a poorly worded tweet from New York City health officials to incorrectly claim that vaccinated people were more susceptible to infection with the coronavirus than unvaccinated people. An unclear tweet from New York City health officials was meant to caution residents that the latest omicron subvariant, XBB.1.5, might be more likely than previous variants to infect vaccinated or previously infected people. Social media posts misinterpreted the tweet to mean that vaccinated people were at higher risk than unvaccinated people. In that health article it correctly gave the following health info:

“Omicron subvariant XBB.1.5 now accounts for 73% of all sequenced COVID-19 cases in NYC. XBB.1.5 is the most transmissible form of COVID-19 that we know of to date and may be more likely to infect people who have been vaccinated or already had COVID-19.”

The imprecisely worded tweet was quickly misconstrued to mean that vaccinated people were at higher risk of infection than unvaccinated people, rather than — as intended — at a higher risk of infection with the new variant compared with previous ones.

[ransomnote]

No. I didn’t not read a gateway pundit article of that title. Whether it’s true or not I can’t say as there’s nothing but spin in the air whenever the truth about the toxic ‘vaccine’ (i.e., gene therapy, according to the FCC filing) reaches the public.

[jonrick46]

The false claims spun from the New York City health officials’ health advisory spread through social media and was taken up by “Gateway Pundit” was more gossip to discredit vaccines by the useful fools exploited by the war on science.

Maybe you can answer this: Is this antivax program a Chinese effort to perpetuate COVID as a means to weaken America?

If that question is tin foil crazy, I have read worse cra-cra from the antivaxxers.

[ransomnote]

If you can quote trash like ‘the war on science’ then you are 100% sold out to the propaganda beast and wasting my time out here on an old thread, trying to bait me this way and that. You’re on the wrong side.

[jonrick46]

I’m trying to educate you to the truth. The vaccine misinformation has been going on in this country since the Small Pox vaccine.

When I heard about the anti-vaccine movent started by Andrew Wakefield, I talked to autism expert Temple Grandin about the association vaccines had to autism. She emphatically said it is non-science—don’t believe it.

When I watched the “Epoch Times” You Tube video about the origins of the COVID virus, I became interested in all aspects of the virus. When President Trump announced the vaccine at warp speed, I was thankful. Then I read the false claims about the vaccine, and I saw it as an attack on Trump. Possibly the false claims had their origin with the Chinese. When I saw all the false claims debunked, it was like the boy who cried wolf. Here are the debunked cries of wolf:

[ransomnote]

You are pharma disinformation. You aren’t in it for ‘truth’ and ‘justice’ and the American way, or even Trump. The vaccine harms people. The strategy of the vaccine was never plausible. Insert mRNA into cells, the cells produce essentially, targets on vital organs, the body targets the vital organs.

Even Fauci notes that Coronaviruses are not ‘vaccine’ potential candidates because they constantly mutate. Fauci and Gates have basically been admitting lately the ‘vaccine’ doesn’t work, meanwhile doctors, nurses, family membbers etc. are all reporting vaccine harm, and you’re here to ‘educate us’ that what we see with our own eyes is not true, and that Gates didn’t really sell most of his shares before coming out and admitting the ‘vaccines’ don’t work. You’re one of the pharma holdouts, still missing the olde days when you could try to manipulate the public, but we’ve been researching for 2+ years and your content is old and busted.

[jonrick46]

“Insert mRNA into cells, the cells produce essentially, targets on vital organs, the body targets the vital organs.”

Nope! I would say, “next!” and leave it at that. However, I endeavor to educate what is accepted by the science as the truth.

The ribosomes of the dendrite cells will transcribe the Spike Protein which is broken up into segments and presented on the MHC-1 and MHC-2 complex molecules on the surface of the host cell’s membrane. The Spike Protein segments are completely contained and no way do they float around in the blood stream. Those who say the Spike Protein messenger in the mRNA vaccine are out of control, don’t know what they are talking about.

Put on your reading glasses read the material and get educated on this link:

https://www.science.org/content/blog-post/spike-protein-behavior

I don’t care for the name calling and characterization in your response—just the science that backs up your observations.

[jonrick46]

“That’s fiction unless you can prove it. I have seen research indicating the more vaccine doses, the more likely to get Covid.”

---

I have seen the research on population densities vs vaccination rates. That I will have to find so I can get it to you. The TV show comes first.

The vaccine doses vs the likeliness to get infected is based on the false narrative that immunity from the vaccine causes an impairment of the immune system. That false narrative does not consider the infectious nature of the Omicron variant which fueled false claims about the vaccinations on social media.

You are wasting my time. Go ‘help’ someone who needs you. You are old school Fauci talking points and ‘ain’t nobody got time for that’.
