But ya, you're the smart guy representing a "majority" view. I mentioned the 4th or 5th shots to see if it would trigger you.
Are you serious? Why on earth would you think that? The breakdown clearly draws a division between >6 months ago and <6 months ago; I have no idea how you missed that given how clearly it's laid out on page 2 and in the chart on page 8.

So the population breakdown is:

15.3% unvaccinated
31.2% 2 doses only
31.8% more than 2 doses w/ latest booster 6+ months ago
21.7% more than 2 doses w/ latest booster less than 6 months ago

And obviously the booster level is age stratified as you'd expect, since that matches the risk. % of total population with 3+ doses:

5-11: 7.2%
12-17: 21.2%
18-29: 39.2%
30-39: 47.1%
40-49: 55.2%
50-59: 64.2%
60-69: 76.9%
70-79: 85.9%
80+: 87.9%


I'm baffled how you could think the most basic public health precautions of regularly vaccinating at-risk people (just like we do for the flu) is "nonsense" that people have to "buy into".
