I disagree with the poison ivy comparison. We KNOW vaccinated people have the same viral load as unvaccinated. Your comparison would suggest there would be lower viral loads in vaccinated (lower lesions in clothed poison ivy victims) Assuming you are equating cloths with vaccine, the vaccinated have the same viral loads as the unvaccinated. |

A vaccinated individual who becomes infected with Covid can carry similar viral loads as the unvaccinated individual. The difference is in the likelihood that a vaccinated individual will become infected in the first place. The vaccine makes this much less likely - not impossible, but not likely. I believe there have also been studies that show that vaccinated individuals who become infected are contagious for fewer days but I can't find that link right now. |

Increases in Coronavirus Cases Are Happening Mainly in States With Stricter COVID-19

The studies I have read agree with your last statement, that the viral loads are the same for the first 7-8 days, then the vaccinated individual's viral load drops at a faster rate than the unvaccinated for the next three to four days. As for carrying viral loads, studies I read show both vaccinated and non are equally likely to carry DELTA viral loads, though vaccinated are more likely to be asymptomatic. This could be a greater risk, as they are likely unaware that they are a transmitter. I would think this is why they are saying if you at risk, regardless of the vaccine start to wear your mask again. |

Is there a site that ranks Covid restrictions? Certainly, California, New Jersey, and New York would rank high on that list but they are among the states with the smallest increase. Florida must be one of the least restrictive states and led the pack with the current surge. |

Data was last updated Sept. 20. New cases are measured per 100,000 people. Louisiana Seven-day change: 100 percent increase Seven-day moving case average: 1,344 Wisconsin Seven-day change: 50.08 percent increase Seven-day moving case average: 2,863 Alaska Seven-day change: 30.84 percent increase Seven-day moving case average: 750 Montana Seven-day change: 25.02 percent increase Seven-day moving case average: 712 Wyoming Seven-day change: 23.3 percent increase Seven-day moving case average: 464 North Dakota Seven-day change: 19.91 percent increase Seven-day moving case average: 350 Michigan Seven-day change: 14.68 percent increase Seven-day moving case average: 3,723 Connecticut Seven-day change: 6.78 percent increase Seven-day moving case average: 748 New Jersey Seven-day change: 4.81 percent increase Seven-day moving case average: 2,133 Maryland Seven-day change: 3.16 percent increase Seven-day moving case average: 1,245 I will post the article as well if you like. Take nothing for granted. You would think FL and TX led the pack, from the way the TV is reporting. |

Florida is doing better than NY and NJ. I expanded the list to all 50 states. Again, watching TV one would think FL and TX were the two states with the highest rates. This is yet another reason why people do not trust what is being reported. I'd like to add, the gov't restricting the monoclonal meds to Fl comes across as a very petty, partisan issue. Definitely divisive. |
