[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]43.8 percent of Americans have been fully vaccinated. In DC, that figure is 45 percent. Not really very impressive, [b]especially since we have such a small populatio[/b]n. https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/vaccines/us-states[/quote] The whole point of rates (like number of vaccinated residents divided by number of residents) is to be able to compare states/localities/whatever with different population sizes. [/quote] DC has 700,000 people living on 61 square miles. Virginia has 8.5 million people living on 43,000 square miles. Both have 45 percent of their populations fully vaccinated. Which feat seems more impressive to you? [/quote] Virginia has 3,808,325 people vaccinated on 42,775 square miles. Texas has 10,097,932 people vaccinated on 268,597 square miles. Which feat seems more impressive to you? That's why we use rates, not numbers. [/quote]
