In reply to: I certainly expect (hope) that this will work with deaths posted by ufl
Looks like hospitalizations are peaking now. Cases are falling almost as quickly as they rose.
The Dutch recently caught up to the UK in the vaccination program.
based on the state's vaccinated/unvaccinated demographics for expected hospitalizations and deaths when the delta variant surge hits a state to help state hospital systems plan.
For example, Israel is continuing to struggle with delta. My guess is that the vaxxed/unvaxxed communities don't mix all that much due to religious differences, while in the NL and other parts of Europe (Portugal is showing a similar pattern) the headline vaxxed number is more realistic for the population as a whole.
My sense is that the US is more like Israel in that some of the unvaxxed communities are isolated enclaves by choice.
