Statistics nitpick… This is expected regardless of if the vaccine is even anything more than a placebo saline shot
The most healthy people will not get vaccinated because they don’t need to. Over time that separates those who are left to just the healthiest of the bunch.
That’s why the unvaccinated line goes from a rate of 2.0 over 1.0 over time, it’s not like we started dying less by not getting vaccinated. We just started getting more and more concentrated of hyper healthy individuals as those more at risk moved into the other group.

In March, the vaccinated were dying at a slightly lower rate then the unvaccinated.
It wasn't until March/April, when mass vaccination of younger healthy people started, that the vaccinated death rate shot up.
Yes but the unvaccinated rate shot down also. It didn’t stay constant. It went from 2.0 to 1.0
