The media's binary separation of populations into vax and unvax is a false dichotomy. More causal factors would be represented by:

  1. Covid-recovered 
  2. Vaccinated
  3. Partly-vaccinated (< 14 days after 2nd shot)
  4. Covid-naive + Unvaccinated

CDC reporting bundles #3 and #4. UK reports all 4 categories separately.

#1 was already a high percentage in 2021 and is now higher due to Omicron.

Edit: CDC estimated pre-Omicron #1 as 146 million people (as of Oct 2021), https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/cases-updates/burd...
