Here is the entire pandemic timeline for the region (each tick is one week. You can see things start to improve in NB.
I keep forgetting to post them, nut here's the updated NB map and case case trend lines by health region. Going in the right direction!
You can see the population-scaled vaccine roll-out here. The top/solid line are doses per capita distributed. The bottom/dashed line are doses administered. The shaded space in between are doses per capita in storage.
How is your province doing?
And here are the vaccine roll-out metrics.
The first is the usage rate of recently distributed doses (in the last 2 weeks).
The 2nd is how many days behind the national average vaccination rate each province is.
That's it for tonight.
Have a great night!
Here's a preview of some tweets from tomorrow. Guess the topic!

I've got a few minutes while dinner is still cooking before I start work again.
Let's talk about vaccine distribution.
I post some version of this graph every day. Solid line is doses distributed to the province, dashed are doses administered. Shade is the difference. Easy.
Here's Ontario for comparison.
From this one graph, you can get a quick sense of how much a province *can* vaccinate and how quickly it *is* vaccinating given that constraint.
But there's bunch of information trapped in that shaded area. (Argh! Trapped data!)
The two SARS-CoV-2 vaccines currently in circulation are Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna.
They are both 2-dose mRNA vaccines. You get one dose and then the 2nd a set number of weeks later. After ~10 days you're at 95% lower risk of developing symptoms (hurray!).
