The CN citing vaccination rates is making a common logical fallacy known as the ‘base rate fallacy’. The efficacy of an intervention cannot be inferred by the rates of the intervention alone. In other words the data does not mean what they think it means. https://ourworldindata.org/covid-deaths-by-vaccination https://thedecisionlab.com/biases/base-rate-fallacy https://www.oxfordreference.com/display/10.1093/oi/authority.20110803095449924;jsessionid=67132387925EC56D46D4884C69F8A155

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1670230830977884167
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
