40,000 unvaccinated deaths is calculated using a % that includes months when most people were unvaccinated (1/2021-3/2021). This skews the % higher. https://www.texastribune.org/2021/11/08/texas-coronavirus-deaths-vaccinated/ Their actual vaccination status is unknown. Which is why the article states it as "might have lost their lives because". https://journals.plos.org/globalpublichealth/article?id=10.1371/journal.pgph.0001173
