--The Case Rate since 6/30 is 2.8x higher in the reddest tenth of the country than the bluest tenth, down from 3.0x higher a month ago.
--The Death Rate since 6/30 is 5.7x higher in the reddest tenth fo the country than the bluest tenth, down from 6.0x higher a month ago.

NONPARTISAN VIEW:
--The Case Rate since 6/30 is 2.2x higher in the least-vaxxed tenth of the country than the most-vaxxed.
--The Death Rate since 6/30 is 4.4x higher in the least-vaxxed tenth of the country than the most-vaxxed.
Both ratios have stayed even for the past month.

While I get a lot more attention for my Red/Blue divide graphs, from a sheer "how effective are the vaccines?" perspective, THIS is the graph I'd show people if you don't want to delve into partisan politics: 
The COVID death rate since 6/30/21 (when the Delta variant started raging across the U.S.) is *4.4x higher* in counties which are less than 42% vaccinated than in counties which are more than 69% vaccinated.
And yes, each of those brackets has roughly ~33.1 million people.

NOTE: The *case rate* graph by vaccination level is interesting in that they drop off at a fairly steady rate until it hits around 60% vaxxed; over that it seems to sort of flatten out.
However, only ~200K people live in counties where more than 80% have been vaxxed.

REGARDING MIAMI-DADE COUNTY: THIS is what I'm talking about.
These are all the U.S. counties which have more than 1M residents and which are supposedly at least 70% fully vaxxed.
Anything stand out???

I’m not suggesting anything nefarious here, by the way. Many FL folks have said they’re pretty sure it’s a combination of snowbirds and vaccine tourists from Latin America etc.
As long as SOMEONE is getting those vaccine injections, it’s not a bad thing. It’s just about how the doses are being reported, that’s all—if a bunch of them aren’t M-D residents they shouldn’t be reported that way.
Obviously this is happening in other parts of the country to some extent as well, but in Miami-Dade it seems to be a MUCH bigger portion of the vaxx data than elsewhere.
UPDATE: Here's an updated look at the Miami-Dade County phenomenon:
