Re: Interesting graph

Thanks, James. It’d be interesting to know whether pre-existing conditions that compromise their immune systems led few vaccinated people to not fare well or even die. Hopefully we’ll get some report on this issue later on. But it’s so clear that being vaccinated is better.

Subject: Interesting graph

GlobalNews(BC) is running the attached graph of severe Covid outcomes per 100K population in BC from Dec. 14th to Jan. 18th. No age breakdown. Data is supposed to come from BC CDC. I found it quite striking. Best wishes, JDF
