There is something odd with the stats. If we look at individual age groups listed, the cases for unvaccinated is multiple x higher than fully vaccinated. Then if one looks back at "all ages", the cases per 100,000 people are almost the same. Is there a bug with the charts?

The data broken down by age is less recent for some reason. Only goes to Oct 24.

Edit: Disclaimer at the top of the page says technical difficulty.

I suggest reading up on Simpson's paradox, which keeps showing up in these kinds of data evaluations regarding covid.

In this case it's not relevant, because it couldn't explain these similar magnitude trend lines adding up to something so tremendously different.

The effect is caused by the age data ending in mid-October, before the spike we're looking at in mid-December. So, the age-segregated data couldn't show that spike at all.
