This is what happens when you just stupidly read the headlines. This is from the article that the headline came from:
Let’s take a look at deaths in August, when the highly contagious BA.5 variant reached its peak:
That month, unvaccinated people aged 6 months and older died at about six times the rate of those who had received their primary series of shots.
People with one booster dose were even better protected. Unvaccinated people over the age of 5 had about 8 times the risk of dying from a coronavirus infection than those who received a booster shot.
Among individuals who were eligible to receive additional booster shots, the gap is even more striking. Unvaccinated people 50 and up had 12 times the risk of dying from covid-19 than adults the same age with two or more booster doses.
They're saying that when they compare people of the same age groups vaccinated vs unvaccinated, the unvaccinated people are dying more.
But overall there's more vaccinated people in the US now (80.6% of people have at least one dose and 68.8% are fully vaccinated). So since more people have taken the vaccine, of course final death counts are gonna be higher for the vaccinated people.
In order to try your best to protect yourself, u should have 4 shots already. But even people with 1 or 2 shots are being lumped in as vaccinated. But some of their immunity is already gone.
