Also, why use countries? Saskatchewan and Montana might be an interesting pair... a super quick eye check suggests cases have been on similar trajectories before the vaccine, and I am guessing Canada is vaccinating at a higher rate than a red state.

That's a good point, but would Saskatchewan (~68% of population fully vaccinated) and Montana (~50% apparently) have enough of a difference in their vaccination rates to do a similar comparison as was done for Israel and Palestine?

Though now that I mention that, perhaps he could also look at Israel (a little over 60% of total population fully vaccinated) v Jordan (35%)?

Looking back at subnational units though, perhaps Manitoba (72%) v North Dakota (46%)?

Yeah those could be interesting. I wonder if selecting border provinces in places like Haiti and DR might be good too. Haiti has an extremely low vaccination rate iirc but not sure how their waves have compared to each other.
