Virtually zero. They have had four total deaths since March. That strongly suggests the vaccines are working well, given their population density.

In the US its.........88 people per square mile!

In New York there are 2957 Covid deaths per million population in Vermont its 633, it doesn't take a genius to work out why.

The US has 2354 deaths from Covid per million population the UK has 2094 deaths from Covid per million and when you consider just how much more the population density is in the UK it may go to show just how well the vaccine's are working?
Doesn’t work that simply in the US.

Mississippi and Alabama have the highest death rates and are very rural.

But it isn't though is it? In your previous post you said this:-

You claim you cannot compare states and then immediately afterwards you start claiming that you can compare Gibraltar with the US!

Make your mind up!

The fact is all of your posts are comparing apples to oranges or they're using some nobody making unsubstantiated claims, what we need are real world facts based on real world scientific studies like these:-

Lekri is comparing Gibralter to the US, thinking 1 death a day shows the vax is working. Go back and re read the thread.

I suggest you go back and look at the real world scientific studies provided, or perhaps provide some of your own? I mean real scientific ones, not something made up by some redneck living in the woods in Oregon.

Yet they are seeing a surge and will therefore ban holiday festivities:

Coming soon to a blue city or state near you.

And now read where I said 'given their population density'. They had 23x less deaths since March as they did December - March. That drop strongly supports the fact that vaccines work very well.

Their first recorded death is November 22, 2020. Almost a year into the pandemic.

Who cares about population density? That's a metric no one can correlate very well with cases. They're basically a neighborhood. Take any neighborhood in any US city, and you have the same population density.

And the same death rates no doubt!? Population density is obviously a huge factor when it comes to Covid, it doesn't take a genius to work out why.
