Your numbers are waaaay off, but ...
Statistically, you're highly unlikely to need more than a single days worth of bed rest if you have side effects from the vax.
In contrast if you're unvaxxed you're more likely to need 2-3 days additional bedrest if you get Omicron than a vaxxed person.
The actual numbers vary considerable depending on your age and whether you have any comorbidity, so I can't give you exact numbers, and you'd probably dispute them if I were to try.
At the end of the day the risk of getting sick from any variant of covid (You can't be sure you won't get Delta) are considerably higher than the risk of any serious side effects from getting the vax. Plus, the vax isn't just about stopping you personally from getting sick, it's also about reducing the risk of you passing covid on to someone who might get it worse than you. Or someone who might chuck out some new variant.
So, while you might not personally have all that much to gain you have even less to lose, and you could be helping to save other people's lives as well.
Not so bad for the vaccine holdouts.

Wow this doesn’t look good for anyone
I don't actually care about any of that, the only thing that matters is serious illness/death.
Which is why mandates for all make no sense
The vaccine no longer prevents illness or transmission, so if it's about that then it's definitely not worth taking.
I actually have nothing to gain by getting the booster and could potentially lose my life. I am double vaxxed and had Omicron. A booster would do literally nothing except potentially kill me.

The reason for so many asymptomatic cases has not been determined, so how do you prove the need to inject everyone with a trial man-made chemical that was tested by asking did you get symptoms?
Perhaps all those that had a bad immune response were already suffering from a parasitic infection or another immune stressor like cancer, diabetes, insulin resistance, etc. As there doesn't seem to be many deaths in people without something else stressing them first. Where is the research on this?
When there is a ship load of people with the virus onboard and some get symptoms, some don't.
Early on they had the cruise ships, merchant ships with people sharing cabins 1 is sick the other not.
Why don't they report on those with no symptoms - what is their health profile?

Obviously that makes sense, but you're just pulling numbers like 99% vaccinated out of your ass. So yes, in your hypothetical country that has a didn' that has a 99% vaccination rate that would be true. Maybe try and provide some real data next time.

What is the point you are trying to make here?

Knowing why some one has no reaction is as important as knowing how to treat someone with a reaction, perhaps more so.

Were, not are. The vaccines were saving people, now with Omicron they are likely doing much more harm than good.

Actually, the vaxx only saved a very few, the rest were harmed...there is data to demonstrate that!
Omicron, considering it's timing; only served as a "Data Countermeasure" to help insure the truth is hidden.

The vaccine is't working as promised. Far from that. I don't believe any stats coming from the government
I believe in what I see
many colapses in elite sports
I think the way we are going is a very dangerous way.

But the death figures in the U.K. are telling.
You are either old, obese or have other comorbidities.

A real vaccine is one shot, and your immunity lasts till the next variant.

A real vaccine is one shot, and your immunity lasts till the next variant. Four five and six shots say it all. Especially with all the other red flags.
