    As noted before " Unvax to vax case rates" --- has nothing to do with vacccinated breakthrough case rate -- which is the vaccinated people with positive cases divided by the fully vaccinated population.

    You are just tossing out meaningless FUD.

    That's because you have a hard time with critical thinking.

    If you took the average number of cases over the last year (since the vaccine was put in place) and you had the percentage that were from vax'd people, you could get to the number of people who got Covid while vax'd. Then you simply take this and divide into the total vax'd and...voila!

    Why could you not do it that way?

    Go run your assertions past a data scientist -- I am sure they could use a good laugh with your "reasoning".

    So you can't answer the question. Have no idea what I'm talking about. Color me shocked!

    Your assertion on how you desire to calculate "vaccinated breakthrough rate" is so laughable that you really should run it past a data scientist --- so they can have a good chuckle and provide some proper feedback. Obviously you are not paying attention the few dozen times we have posted on ET how this is calculated by scientists. So we are really wasting our time explaining to you the basic concept of --

    Number of positive cases / number of fully vaccinated individuals = vaccinated breakthrough rate (expressed as a %).

    No, dopey. I'm saying that the information can be calculated when you determine the number of cases from COVID, you know the % of those cases that are from vaccinated individuals, you can get to the vaccinated rate.

    From JHU:

    Which states do not report any breakthrough case data? The list is long: Colorado, Florida, Hawaii, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri, Nevada, New Hampshire, New York, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Texas, and Wyoming. Choosing not to report breakthrough cases with detailed metadata makes it nearly impossible to track COVID-19 surges, variants, and vaccine effectiveness. Residents of these states could be using breakthrough case data to make daily decisions that impact the health of their families. States have a responsibility to provide this critical data to their residents.
    Which explains why your data you posted originally is flawed.

    Where's all the GWB whining: "Why don't they report data? What are they hiding? Blah blah blah"

    If it were DeSantis, you'd be all over it. But because it helps your case, you're mum on it.

    Say the words loudly until they sink home -- the vaccinated breakthrough rate has NOTHING to do with the ratio of cases between vaccinated and unvaccinated people.
