I scrolled down to the "Geography" section, and I don't think that data shows what they wish it would show. Out in the boonies, there's still a high ratio of unvaccinated-positive vs. vaccinated/boosted positive, but in the Seattle sections where all the GoodPeople™ live, it's much closer. As if the vaccine hardly protects against Omicron at all or something. Hmmm.

The box when you hover over West Seattle (where I live) shows the text:

"Residents not fully vaccinated are 1.0 times more likely to test positive for COVID-19 than fully vaccinated residents with a booster.

Residents not fully vaccinated are 0.7 times more likely to test positive for COVID-19 than fully vaccinated residents without a booster."

As in, the vaccine has a *negative* effect by itself, and with the booster only brings it up to an even chance.

I don't think you'll see *that* finding in the headlines of the Seattle Times...
