Minnesota doesn’t make any of this easy, but Dave Dixon has helped to try to sort our what is happening in unvaccinated population in Minnesota. This takes the part of the state’s population that is not vaxed and assumes, which is the case so far, that most of the cases, hospitalizations and deaths are occurring in that population and shows per capita by age group rates for events. But I will say again, when we get to most people in the population being vaccinated, the age structure will be similar to a fully unvaxed population, it will be heavily weighted toward the elderly in terms of serious illness. Overall numbers will be much lower, but the age structure will look similar.
