At this point, the unvaccinated pose a very small risk to the vaccinated population. That's why the hospital numbers are so skewed to the unvaccinated population. Let them make, and live, with their own decisions. I'll feel like we can go back to almost totally normal (personally, my family, not the country) once the kids are vaccinated. AFAIAC, at that point, the pandemic is effectively over for us. If we suffer a breakthrough case(s), the symptoms are likely to be very mild and hospitalization a very small likelyhood. But at least we can start taking the kids out again to the park, museums, and seeing their friends via non digital means. Can't wait.

By your logic (not disagreeing), then the breakout cases among the vaccinated could be largedly attributed to the unvaccinated. So if purplcity and eod places big emphasis on the ineffectiveness of the vaccine due to the breakout cases, doesn't that prove the unvaccinated is posing a serious risk to the vaccinated population?
You can't have your cake and eat it too, cw. Not saying you are, but the logic behind the breakout cases being the reason for not getting vaccinated, it's not sound.
