Fact: Not a mask in sight at the Emmy's.

I am thankful my 94-year old aunt retired from NJ to Florida and is in a nursing home down there. Florida has had a good record in the nursing homes.

It (we) does? I thought it was pretty bad.

An Aunt for me.

I am surprised the NZ numbers are that low! Here (British Columbia/Canada), we are just under 80 % fully vaccinated.

We were very late in getting started, sometimes for which our Primi Minister has been much criticised for.

NZ vaccination rates coming along
* 75% have received at least 1 vaccination shot
* 40% are fully vaccinated

Government target is for over 90% fully vaccinated by Xmas

My sister was one of the victims.

I did not mention that NJ would not be so highly ranked except for the 8.5K deaths in nursing homes, mostly in the early days of the pandemic when the state policy was to return COVID patients from hospitals to the nursing homes which infected many other elderly individuals.

Although NJ had the recent spike in cases, the number of new deaths has remained relatively low - allowing other states to catch up. What few deaths have occurred are mostly unvaccinated individuals.

It seems that Louisiana is #3 behind Mississippi and New Jersey according to these numbers.

and in the weirdness that is the programming that runs this board, when you put it up, it was approved, no problem. I read it yesterday afternoon.... somewhere in the interim it got the bounce (for no apparent reason)

It seems to do it sometimes when I do an edit.

LA (2848) has now passed NY(2840) as the second worst. MS (3045) is likely to pass NJ (3051) as early as tomorrow. MA (2669) in the 5th place is likely to be passed by AZ (2651), which has just passed RI. CT (2361) is now outside of worst ten at 11th.

Share of people fully or partly vaccinated.

Canada 74.6%
France 73.3%
Italy 72.6%
UK 71.0%
Germany 65.9%
Japan 63.9%
USA 62.5%

We are still leading Japan 53.2% to 51.7% in the share of fully vaccinated. But that will also change soon.

Even that 55k is now behind Texas. And NY (2813) is also about to be passed by MS (2782) in deaths / million. LA (2659) has just passed MA (2643) as the 4th worst.
