One should also caveat here that unvaccinated are far and above the ones ending up hospitalized, and dying, with Omicron. Those who are vaccinated and hospitalized very often have other underlying conditions that Omicron is exacerbating.

Everyone else who is vaccinated is just getting sick, like a strong flu or cold.

GET VACCINATED. At this point, it's the only way this pandemic will end.

Get vaccinated yes, but that's not how the pandemic will end. It will end when most people have had this thing. Essentially it's probably over now but the media is going to hold on to it for a little while longer.

I didn't know the unvaccinated were dying of Omicron.

The things you learn on hacker news.

Not defending the original comment because no source was provided, but I didn't know this was up for debate. It stands to reason. Now, how much more unvax vs vax are dying could be debated, but to say they are dying at the same rate would be to claim that the vaccine has no affect whatsoever.

I would take that bet.
