The first paper you cited does not consider vaccinated individuals, so it doesn't support your original comment that people who were vaccinated "were 6.72 times more likely to get infected". The second reference does not provide a citation for the "39% efficiency against infection" claim. But some digging turned up the Israeli Ministry of Health press release from May [1], which states: - "From the epidemiological analysis by public health services in the Ministry of Health, it is evident that since June 6th there was marked decline in the effectiveness of the vaccine in preventing infection (64%) and symptomatic illness (64%)." In summary [1] also does not support the "6.72 times more likely to get infected" claim. And since the data backing [1] does not appear to be publicly available nor subject to any peer-review process or other academic scrutiny, it should be taken with a big grain of salt.
