On top of the 54.7 million people eligible for Covid-19 vaccination who have chosen to remain unvaccinated, a further 37.9 million people who had the first dose refused the second dose, and a further 90.2million people who had the second dose refused the third dose.
The pandemic’s toll is no longer falling almost exclusively on those who chose not to get shots, with vaccine protection waning over time and the elderly and immunocompromised — who are at greatest risk of succumbing to covid-19, even if vaccinated — having a harder time dodging increasingly contagious strains.
The vaccinated made up 42 percent of fatalities in January and February during the highly contagious omicron variant’s surge, compared with 23 percent of the dead in September, the peak of the delta wave, according to nationwide data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention analyzed by The Post. The data is based on the date of infection and limited to a sampling of cases in which vaccination status was known.
As a group, the unvaccinated remain far more vulnerable to the worst consequences of infection — and are far more likely to die — than people who are vaccinated, and they are especially more at risk than people who have received a booster shot.

Would be nice if they included totals of percent instead of saying
The vaccinated made up 42 percent of fatalities in January and February during the highly contagious omicron variant’s surge, compared with 23 percent of the dead in September
Because if 10 people died in September and 800 people died in January& February they are far from backing up their claims.
Percentages by themselves without the exact numbers they referencing(are using w/source) number is dangerous. And can easily screw views in whatever favor by omitting them.
Got 2 shots to keep my job a couple of months later got covid.

How many of those people are children who don't need vaxxing or illegals who are afraid to get vaxxed in case they get deported?

were ever fully vaccinated
So what say you ATS? Is everybody getting their boosters?

The question remains are they using the numbers you linked? What about misdiagnosed numbers like gunshot wounds, stabbings, traffic accidents, overdoses, suicides, etc. That to can make a huge difference.
Because I am fairly certain certain times of year has higher deaths like suicide rates, and overdosing then others. But we know they all get counted as covid, as those payments per diagnosis never stopped. Now September - December is usually a higher death statistic then January & Feb. As people look forward to a new year. But holiday blues like Xmas, Thanksgiving, etc.. can be to much for some.
I kinda stopped looking at numbers in general. Although I can clearly stated that deaths are reasonably high based on job and housing. I try to get an idea through other means at this point since they have proven to be so untrustworthy.
My suggestion is to talk to a morgue, in your area to see if something is needed to be worried about and then move on. Most morgues have already came out and said death rates skyrocketed after vaccines came out. But again to each their own, most places won't have issues generalizing as long as you don't invade privacy like asking names of those who died etc
