This graph really highlights the importance of keeping up social distancing and mask wearing in (at least) the first two weeks following the first dose of the vaccine. You don't get immunity right away. Vaccine = blue 🔵 Placebo = red 🔴
No words needed. That's what vaccines do.

Finally worked on a #TidyTuesday data set since this week's was #animalcrossing themed! I looked at the distribution of villager birthdays by date and found: - There are no days with >= 3 bdays - 6/7 Lion villagers are Leos (dammit Mott) #rstats code: bit.ly/2SJg1fS
