How does the number of unvaccinated go down?

Fewer unvaccinated people.

Another question is why is the percent of vaccinated cases very nearly the same as the percent of vaccinated people.

You need a new battery. +9°F isn't even cold for a strong battery.

Yea I kinda figured that

OOPs, I meant go up. Based on that chart the number of unvaccinated people went up pretty substantially in the fall.

They even heat your tush. And you can set the temp for your water and seperate users. I want one so bad but cant talk the DH into it

I think the ones with heated water and blow dry would be so nice! There are bare bones models that just take water from the toilet tank but omg my downstairs bathroom is freezing cold. One would end up with buttsicles!

And he is a questionable representative of that one.

One possibility is the vaccines give some protect against covid. If so, why did that number go down so much after that spike?

Another possibility is it correlates with the Delta spike. It could be Delta being so much more contagious - either people's precautions or circumstances were enough to not get the less contagious variant but were not enough to not get the more contagious variant. Such as someone like me - I make a point of limiting how much time I spend in proximity to anyone else...I would go shopping at Home Depot (big open space with lots of airflow) but not more than dash in and out of the post office (ours is very small, very little airflow in the customer section at least). That worked before Delta and during Delta. Omicron is even more contagious - now I might dash in and out of Home Depot and don't go into the post office. Actually, I'm not going into Home Depo at all either until more is known, but concept. I'm doing it deliberately but it could also be unintentional - typically take a little less than six minutes to pay for groceries, for example.

Much better way of putting it than the way I deleted.

Cant believe I actually looked this up:
"In rural agrarian communities, handfuls of straw were frequently used, but one of the most popular items to use for clean-up was dried corncobs. They were plentiful and quite efficient at cleaning. They could be drawn in one direction or turned on an axis. They were also softer on tender areas than you might think. Even after toilet paper became available, some people in Western states still preferred corncobs when using the outhouse"

You can't believe you looked it up or you cant believe you found this out?
