Higher COVID-19 Rate Found in Some California Counties With Higher Vaccination Rate
@COVID19Up: A new analysis finds several counties in California with above-average vaccination rates also have higher COVID-19 case rates, while case rates are falling in counties with below-average vaccination rates.
Statewide data analyzed by the Bay Area News Group found five counties, Los Angeles, San Diego, Alameda, Contra Costa, and San Francisco, have both a higher percentage of people who are fully vaccinated than the state average and a higher average daily case rate.
Compare that to these five counties: Modoc, Glenn, Lassen, Del Norte, and San Benito, which have below-average vaccination rates and decreasing case rates.
However, infectious disease expert Dr. Phillip Norris clarifies that the data doesn’t mean the COVID-19 vaccine is not working.
