Fair enough, but maybe the governor can also tell us who's fault it is if you end up in the hospital with Covid and you have been vaccinated?

Covid kills more vaxxed Vermonters than unvaxxed for third straight month

By Guy Page on November 30, 2021

Deaths per capita still higher among unvaxxed


For the third consecutive month, a majority of Vermont residents who died of Covid-19 were vaccinated.

59.4% of November Covid-19 fatalities were fully vaccinated. In October, 58% were fully vaccinated, according to statistics provided today by State of Vermont statistician Erik Filkorn of Buildings and General Services (BGS).

In September, 76% of Vermont fatalities were Covid-19 ‘breakthrough’ cases who had been vaccinated (no breakdown between partially and fully vaccinated), according to data from the Vermont Department of Health.

As shown by the data (republished verbatim) sent this morning by Filkorn to Vermont Daily Chronicle, the rate of fatalities per capita was about 50% higher both October and November among the unvaccinated. At present, 72.9% of Vermonters are fully vaccinated.

From Oct 1 –31:

Among VT Residents there were:

Fully vaccinated deaths: 26 (rate of .61 per 10,000 residents).

Partially vaccinated deaths: 0

Unvaccinated Deaths: 19 (rate of .97 per 10,000 residents).

From Nov 1 – Nov 30:

Among VT Residents there were:

Fully vaccinated deaths: 19 (rate of .44 per 10,000 residents).

Partially vaccinated deaths: 0

Unvaccinated Deaths: 13 (rate of .69 per 10,000 residents).

No one was enforcing the mask mandates. Even on the trains (the easiest place to enforce), only about 50% of people were wearing masks.

It also smelled like marijuana everywhere downtown. But that's another issue...

The only mandates in CO a month ago were the federal ones for public transportation/airports and Boulder County. The day before thanksgiving, most metro counties enacted the face diaper crap. My condo building doesn’t enforce it nor do several businesses I frequent. The few times I’ve been through DIA this fall, no one enforced it.
