Well, that didn't take long. COVID Cases over the last 7 days have increased over the prior 7 days.

45. 0-11 year olds CANNOT be vaccinated - so no, at this point, it is NOT a choice.

And part of the reason breakthroughs are rare is because at the time the data was collected, mitigation measures were in effect so those vaccinated had fewer exposures.

Whether you acquire COVID, if you are vaccinated or not, depends on the extent of your exposure. More exposures = more cases - EVEN if you are vaccinated. (Breakthrough cases will be proportionately lower - BUT - as the exposure rises, so will the number of breakthrough cases.)

Finally - there is some evidence that variants are more effective at getting around immunity.

So, no, this s not just a case of I'm protected - too bad you were too stupid to protec ourselves.

We are an integrated system, and what happens to the voluntarily unvaccinated impacts what happens to us. Not to mention that approximately 15% of the population is not yet even eligible to be vaccinated.
