Average age at death 74
Overall, vaccination rates among nursing home staffers across the state are fairly high: 75% on average. The problem, the state says, is that 41% of the 378 nursing homes in Massachusetts, or 155, had staff vaccination rates below that average.
... with 34,044 confirmed or probable cases of COVID-19 among residents and staff of nursing homes as of July 30, the state has seen a five-fold increase in nursing home cases over the past 30 days, according to the order.

Sounds dangerous. I’ll just avoid the entire state.
Folks, here are the important stats at the END of the article.
“ Breakthrough hospitalizations account for about 25% of current COVID-19 hospitalizations. Those who are unvaccinated are at a much higher risk for a severe case and hospitalization.
There have been 762 hospitalizations among fully vaccinated people in Massachusetts, which is 0.02% of those who are fully vaxxed.
The 762 total patients is a one-week increase of 111 fully vaxxed patients. The previous weekly increase was 80 fully vaxxed patients.
The state has reported 162 breakthrough deaths, or 0.004% of those who are fully vaxxed. That’s a one-week increase of 18 deaths. The previous weekly increase was 13 deaths, and the week before that was seven deaths.”
