Skipper: The statistics do not show that 99% of hospitalizations are among the unvaccinated.

The CDC based it's original statement of 95% of hospitalizations being among the unvaccinated on data from Jan - June 1 2021, when indeed the vast majority of the country was not yet fully vaccinated. So that unvaccinated narrative was based on old data from before most people were vaccinated.

Look at Israel - which in a lot of ways is ahead of us in dealing with Delta. Dr. Kobi Haviv, director of the Herzog Hospital in Jerusalem, reported that 95% of severely ill COVID-19 patients are fully vaccinated, and that they make up 85% to 90% of COVID related hospitalizations overall.

In Scotland, official data on hospitalizations and deaths show 87% of those who have died from COVID-19 in the third wave that began in early July were vaccinated,and in Gibraltar, which has a 99% COVID jab compliance rate, COVID cases have risen by 2,500% since June 1, 2021.

A CDC investigation of an outbreak in Barnstable County, Massachusetts between July 6 through July 25, 2021, found 74% of those who received a diagnosis of COVID19, and 80% of hospitalizations, were among the fully vaccinated. Most, but not all, had the Delta variant.

Doctors of course are not in on conspiracies, but are just doing what they read and are told, which is push vaccines and don't treat unless the patient becomes so bad they need to go to the hospital. My son is an ER physician so I know what is happening there.
