Not sure if I'm reading it right, but
Doesn't that mean the vaccinated are dying just barely over the same rate as the unvaccinated?
You are reading the TOTAL (73, 0.12%) and UNvaccinated (34, 0.10%) figures. Look at the VACCINATED figures post 14 days of shot 2 (fully vaccinated), which is at 26 (0.64%).
You can't compare the absolute numbers with each other, you need to look them as a percentage of that cohort (population), i.e. the percentage figures.
Gotcha, sounds like it's a framing issue then.
According to this data, among those who already contracted the virus, the vaccinated are dying 6x more than the unvaccinated.
However, when factoring in the chance of being infected in the first place, the chances of dying to the delta variant are roughly the same (as observed by comparing the total deaths among vaxed and unvaxed).
Still not a good look for the vaccines.
EDIT: this assumes the vax and unvax populations are the same size
Right
