  Keep in mind that 69% of the population in Washington is vaccinated. This will skew the proportion of hospitalized towards the vaccinated. Vaccination seems to be about 70% effective at preventing serious disease requiring hospitalization. So yeah, not mild in vaccinated people either, just less horrifyingly bad. https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2119270 https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2119270

    It’s not quite that simple, because the proportion of the population who are vaccinated isn’t representative of the whole.
