    I know far more vaccinated people that have tested positive for COVID than unvaccinated people that have tested positive for COVID.

You probably also associate with more vaccinated people than unvaccinated so that'll skew your view.

In thinking about it, I'm not sure that's true. The hardest thing of the past 15 years has been living within the crunchy holistic universe while coming from a scientific background. The big surprise this year has been discovering that we're pretty rare on our side of the divide - there are far more people in our circle who pay lip service to science but when the chips are down believe in magic than we would have thought.

Our clientele runs about 50% vaccinated, which is a good 10% lower than the county we're in. And we've had three separate "holy shit you aren't vaccinated" moments in the past month.
