I’m not getting the vaccine and had covid twice. I have antibodies, which should be recognized in lieu of vaccine. I took no space in a hospital. It’s a bit hyperbolic at this point, don’t you think?

Good for you :), but it's not about individuals. Only a small portion of unvaccinated people are hospitalized. However, even 1% of a dense population is still a lot of people and hospitals + ICs get clogged up. The probability of hospitalization is 17x smaller for vaccinated people and the probability of needing IC treatment 33x smaller [1]. So, if all people were vaccinated, we wouldn't have the issues we had last 6 months. Now we have a lot of delayed surgeries, including cancer surgeries, etc. It’s a bit hyperbolic at this point, don’t you think? As the statistics show, no. Though luckily, things are changing now that Omicron is dominant, so I think all limitations are lifted pretty soon here.
