Talk about owned and confused. You just got caught spewing another big lie. Just like you were taught by your lying government/MSM machine. Thanks for sharing another link that shows that the majority hospitalized are vaxxed.
The point is that the majority hospitalized in Israel are vaccinated AND the vaccines are working very well!
Both can be true, although it is confusing.
If your goal was just to state a fact: "The majority hospitalized in Israel are vaccinated"
then surely you have no problem with my fact:
"vaccines remain extremely protective against hospitalization in Israel"
Evidently, Harambe defines 39% efficacy as working Very Well:

The main reason for this is the vaccines were designed around a single spike protein. The reality is that these variants have multiple protein markers, so the antibodies produced by one's body from an actual infection are far superior to prevent future infection than the vaccine antibodies that act on a single protein spike, which is why the observed break through infection rate in Israel is 13 times the reinfection rate.
What the 39% figure means on a broader sense is that the vaccinated are almost as likely to spread COVID as the unvaccinated if they are not distancing and are interacting with others normally and without masks. Ultimately the end of this pandemic will not be met solely through vaccination, but through a combination of vaccination and naturally acquired immunity, as the protection afforded by vaccination cannot keep up with the mutations.
