I also just have to ask; after a few politicians made absurd claims about 95% of Covid being traced to the non-vaxxed, we heard rumours they would (finally) publish vaxx vs non-vaxx numbers
When said numbers disproved their theories this went away and we never heard about it again did we?
The best way to stop coronavirus deaths and severe illness is to roll out vaccines quickly. However, the researchers concluded that the chance a vaccine-resistant strain will emerge is highest in a scenario that combines three conditions: First, a large portion of a population is vaccinated, but not everyone. Second, there's a lot of virus circulating. And third, no measures are in place to curb potential viral transmission from vaccinated people.
Before the rise of Delta, which is now responsible for more than 80% of US coronavirus cases, that situation wasn't a concern because research suggested vaccinated people weren't likely to transmit other versions of the virus. But according to a CDC study released Friday, vaccinated people may transmit the Delta variant just as easily as the unvaccinated.

Rates of SARS-CoV-2 transmission and vaccination impact the fate of vaccine-resistant strains - Scientific Reports
Vaccines are thought to be the best available solution for controlling the ongoing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. However, the emergence of vaccine-resistant strains may come too rapidly for current vaccine developments to alleviate the health, economic and social consequences of the pandemic. To quantify...

Fully vaccinated people account for only 0.5 per cent of new COVID-19 cases in Canada: Trudeau
Trudeau said he was still confident in the decision to start reopening the border as the data show that allowing vaccinated people to travel is low risk
