>The reasonable evidence is still that vaccines work and are effective and safe and the best way to end the pandemic, and that delta is still largely transmitting and killing people through the unvaccinated population. the publicly available numbers that i mentioned (from MA, Israel, Singapore, UK) show that the chances of vaccinated to get infected is 25% of that of unvaccinated (400 out of 1400 with 65% vaccination rate, and that is without paying attention to an obvious fact that breakthrough infections are heavily undercounted due to vaccine softening the disease symptoms). The 25% chances is absolutely too big to speak about any meaningful effect on slowing the spread. Such conclusion clearly comes from basic statistical arithmetic, as well as from seasonal flu vaccine experience where the efficacy is in the same ballpark.
