Just watched the local news. Some county medical official was on there and said that between 25-30% of new Delta Covid cases are in people who are vaccinated in our county. I could of swore reading national media articles that said something like 95% of some of the more current cases are from unvaccinated folks...
Like that's a massive discrepancy. Which one is it? It's hard for me to believe the local guy was lying and inflating that number that significantly.
95% of
hospitalizations are from unvaccinated.
depending on how much blanket testing is done in an area (so that also the asymptomatic cases are detected), the rate of detected infections coming from vaccinated may vary. in an area with lots of testing, getting to a vaccinated share of 30% among
cases sounds resonable. the overwhelming majority of them will have a mild cold or no symptoms at all.
