Another research dump, probably the penultimate one for 2021, and I never thought I would be writing them this long.

I am basking in Florida warmth but still cranking out the research summaries.

The CDC's forecasting is as good as everything else the agency does.

A review of deaths in younger Minnesotans supposedly attributed to CV-19 shows that in most the virus had no significant role.

Proportions of events by vax status by age group.

The very latest in breakthrough events, direct from DOH.

Updated case rates of hospitalization and death by age group and vax status.

Given the DOH refusal to provide more accurate data, we do our best job on relative per capita infection rates.

As we pass one million detected "cases" in Minnesota a few remarks to note the occasion.

Man, the research doesn't even slow down over the holidays, so just trying to stay as current as possible.

Updated tracking of the epidemic by age group.

A look at excess deaths from various causes in Minnesota and nationally.

The blizzard arrives, maybe, in some places and what cases have looked like across the country the last few months.

North Dakota data also shows prior infection-derived immunity is more protective than vax.

Assuming what we learned from DOH is accurate, doing case rates became a lot easier and has some surprising results.
