Thanks raphlinus and walterbell for surfacing the Oklahoma reinfection report. It is the first time I see epi data on this topic from a credible source. A couple of interesting points:
* Sept 2021 reinfection / breakthrough ratio is 1.96
* Sept 2021 / May 2021 breakthrough rate shows almost 15x growth in 5 months. During the same period reinfection rate also grew, but only by 3x. I presume this is related to the raise of Delta.
