US Covid death rate by vaccination status

Would you lovely people help me understand this graph?

The only explanation I can come up with as to why the death rates for the unvaccinated are so low is because a lot of the unvaccinated are already dead, so there are less of them…

You're fine! Who knew there'd be all this math we'd have to do back in early 2020? Anyway people here are very kind and happy to help.

I think the medical professionals became better at treating Covid and keeping people alive.

Hiya Krissie! Ltns, I hope u have been doing well and enjoying your summer!

😳😳....girl, I have no friggin clue if I'm being honest. I gave up a long time ago trying to figure out any of this stuff. They're either dead, dying, or have long Covid. These people have become infected so many times, and by some strange twist of fate, keep surviving.

Hiya! I feel stupid asking questions like this. I’m just trying to understand it all, but not smart enough to figure things out myself. So far I’ve been spending my summer in sunny Belfast, then I will return to sunny Scotland. How’s your summer going?
