I saw the headline and literally said, “OK, let’s click on the comments. Hopefully someone on Boing Boing will give me the math to make me feel better”. Thanks.
Is that a reasonable assumption though? According to google in Massachusetts only 63.7% of the population is fully vaccinated, not 99%.
I was going to claim that folks on The Cape are more likely to be vaccinated than the folks in rural Mass. Just returned from there and the places we haunt are mostly pretty liberal, reasonable, and want to keep their business open. But the Cape has an interesting mix of liberals and conservatives. (Crazy that that feels like a proxy for vaccinated and unvaccinated, no?) According to this it has less than a 25% vaccination rate! According to this Provincetown has a 114% (no typo) vaccination rate! So: Who knows?
