in my country the official figure is that "90% of hospitalized are unvaccinated or vaccinated without a booster". this certainly sounds like a doctored phrase and it dilutes trust to the medical system.

It's simply accurate, and reflects the dramatic difference in vaccine efficacy between 2 and 3 doses (or rather, between a recent or more distant dose)

The problem with that narrative is that it absolves responsibility for further action by pretending that the vaccines are the best we can do about this pandemic. It becomes a show and that's not good
