Most certainly to a degree and anyone else pushing it. Fauci, Biden, media, Trump, CDC, WHO, everyone is at fault. Let's be clear I'm not saying that it's what happened but I am saying something is not adding up and there's certain questions the more cases yet the less unvaccinated.
The vaccine helps protect against the spread quite a bit, but its true strength is in helping people’s immune systems fight off an infection. The UK was hit with the Delta variant a few weeks before we were and the percentage of people vaccinated is a bit higher but you can see in their new cases that they are not seeing more people get sick. They are on the decline and we can expect that too in the US.
SARS-CoV-2 won’t ever go away. It is here to stay. Everyone will get it, maybe even more than once. If you’ve been vaccinated or had a bad case then it will likely be like catching a cold. If you haven’t been vaccinated then it likely will be miserable but you’ll probably not die as it does have a 99.9% survival rate even without the vaccine. I’m not one to shame and I strongly oppose mandates. You are an adult and can decide for yourself if you want to give your immune system a head’s up, and you can see the statistical benefits of doing that, but if you’re hoping it will blow over or miss you then I don’t think that will happen.
As you can see with the statistics in the UK it is not true that the more people get vaccinated, the more cases they have. The chance the vaccine is the mutation is zero and that is the problem. The vaccine has the original S-Spike while the variants have slightly different S-Spikes which can confuse your immune system. You are still far better off having had the vaccine then not, but variants can get a little further before being recognized by your immune system.
First I want it known I'm not avtivax at all, I'm anti-authoritarian BS the alt left is pushing. I'm against this "let's shun people" disgusting act of humanity. That pushes me away.Every one of these is a great question.

Above are new cases while below are deaths. Comparing the charts is where you see how much these vaccines boost immune response. In March of 2020 there was no vaccine and the deaths were very high. In January 2021 there was another wave of infection and the deaths among the partially vaccinated public were proportional. In the recent wave of infections relatively few people died. The vaccines help a lot.

Co worker of mine just got out of the hospital. He is in his 30's. Very very healthy. Great shape. No underlying conditions. Was having a very hard time breathing so he went to the ER. Got to the hospital and they had no beds available and told him to sit in the waiting room while they called around trying to find him a hospital that could admit him. He waited in the waiting room for 9 hours when they finally found a hospital that had a bed for him. Drove him there in an ambulance. He was in the hospital for 4 days. Couldn't breathe good at all and was very scared. Had a fever for 11 days. Cost him a lot of money and sucked bad.
Sooooo it’s not just a flu? It doesn’t just affect the elderly? Glad he made it. I wonder what his medical bills are going to be like?
I mentioned the cost. He said that its going to be crazy expensive. He said that he was told the ambulance ride to the location with a bed available would be free but then they charged him for it anyway.
Yes, most ambulance rides are outside of health insurance network. My neighbor had an ambulance ride that cost him a few thousand bucks. One four day hospital stay has got to be thousands upon thousands. Frankly, I’d be shocked if he didn’t have a $20,000+ dollar bill waiting. Glad he made it. But man, our health care system is just so ****ed up.

Vaccinated people are getting sick — but some counterintuitive math puts it in context - The Boston Globe
It’s a mistake to measure vaccine effectiveness by the percentage of hospitalized patients.
