According to the article, as of APril 23, only 33.6% of DC residents has at least one shot. Seems below the national average. Is that because DC has so many children compared to other states? Or does DC have a high percentage of vaccine resistant Republican men?

They did say, they have no way of tracking those who got vax out of state, I would imagine that would bolster that number closer to 40%
but that's just a guess

I've explained what's up here a few times, but I'll let The Atlantic do it this time.

What portion of that 33% are elderly folks who wouldn’t be caught dead in Adams Morgan?

I went out on a give mile run this morning and a moth promptly flew up my nose. Damn you, CDC, how dare you advise me to take the mask off?

HA!  Had a similar experience on my bike ride last night.  The gnats were just clouds of nastiness all over the trail and I could feel them bouncing off my glasses and thought to myself, this is the one occasion that I wish I had my mask on

those DC numbers seem absurdly low to me but then again I live in a liberal woke bubble even by DC standards - I don't think I know anyone who hasn't received at least one shot - most of my neighborhood went to the MD mass vaxx sites so they won't show up in the DC numbers

Do you have a lot of older black men in your neighborhood?

I just received word from my employer that vaccinated people are still required to wear masks in outdoor areas, just like unvaccinated people.

Aren't you woke? It's all about equity, man. Just like Virginia changing it's math curriculum so that every student takes the same math classes through 10th grade, regardless of differing math ability levels.
