> which we know to be under 10% Source?

  https://covid-19.ontario.ca/data#casesByVaccinationStatus https://covid-19.ontario.ca/data#casesByVaccinationStatus Search for "hospital but not the ICU". Look above it for ICU stats. For "Not in ICU", it can be argued that even 10% is an overstatement. The author of the article, meanwhile, doesn't provide any sources whatsoever. Another interesting piece of data was recently removed from Got-t of Alberta website, but you can see it here: https://alexberenson.substack.com/p/the-government-of-alberta-says-you/comments https://alexberenson.substack.com/p/the-government-of-albert...

    The Ontario dashboard for "Not in ICU" currently shows 739 unvaccinated and 2050 vaccinated. But since effectiveness compares rates, not absolute numbers, one needs to normalize those numbers by the size of each subpopulation. Since roughly 80 percent of Ontarios are vaxxed, the relative risk for being unvaccinated is approximately (739/0.2) / (2050/0.8) = 1.4

      Any reason for the downwote? If anything, this underestimates the risk since it assumes no difference in infection rates. If one normalizes instead by the actual number of unvaccinated cases and vaccinated cases as reported further down on that page, one gets (739/1456) / (2050/8079) = 2
