In the last few weeks, I've been following the Covid stats in Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, three highly-vaccinated countries who received kudos for their early response to Covid. Japan has recently seen a 1,400% rise in cases from any time in the pre-vaccine period. Deaths are up 200% from the pre-vaccine period.
South Korea has seen cases rise from a little over a thousand a day to over 100,000 a day. Deaths have risen 200% despite the supposedly milder omicron variant constituting most of the cases.
Singapore has gone from about 1,000 cases a day to 16,000 a day at one point. Deaths, although low in raw number, went from less than one a day to an average of about eight a day, a 700-800% increase.
I don't know Vietnam's vaccination status, but it went from basically zero cases and zero deaths, pre-vaccine, to a high of 47,000 cases a day and an average of about 150 deaths a day over six months.
None of this should be happening if the vaccines are truly effective.

So you are posting as “evidence” stats which show the vaccine was highly effective at preventing death among the more deadly strains of the virus while they were circulating, and now that we have a much more contagious, but also much less deadly strain of the virus circulating for which you acknowledge the deaths remain very low, that is “proof” the vaccines didn’t work to prevent all of those other deaths while the more deadly strains it was effective against were circulating.
That does not make any sense, and you have to know that if you think it through.
