variant is more of a challenge from an infection point of view, the populace is still benefitting from vaccinations....go look at the other link I posted to understand how a larger proportion of vaccinated people ends up with a relatively high number of deaths recently, but a much lower "Percentage" of that population vs. those who are unvaccinated.
One thing for sure should NEVER be ignored...since vaccines were introduced, they've saved literally millions of lives worldwide....FACT...so stop the nonsense.
