Basically, statistics only matter when it shows what they want you to see, but when it says that triple vaxxed are 8% more likely to get Omicron than unvaxxed then you are drawing conclusions.
Social media users are misrepresenting these findings (on Omicron’s apparent ability to breakthrough vaccine protection) by saying those vaccinated are more susceptible to infection overall.
It merely says the vaccinated are infected by Omicron more than other variants like Delta. That's it. In other words, the vaccines are quite effective against Delta, but due to mutation, Omicron can slip past immunity a little easier.
The vast majority of folks in hospitals and the morgues from Covid (Alpha, Delta, or Omicron) nowadays are unvaccinated.
