Surfer Kelly Slater: “It’s sad to see the celebrated division by the ‘virtuous’ vaccinated. If you’re vaccinated why are you concerned/worried about anyone else’s status … unless, of course, it doesn’t protect you? ... So much brainwashed hatred in people’s hearts regardless of vax status.”

That's not true.

Before covid we were told we needed 90% to be vaccinated to avoid outbreaks not everyone.

However that really doesn't apply to the covid vax anyway because it doesn't stop you catching or spreading like other vaccines do.

We have 100% vaccinated and boosted places like Gibraltar having large omicron outbreaks.

So I'm thinking, how have you managed to miss this?

Only countries which achieved over 90% of vaccination are Cuba, Portugal and United Arab Emirates.

Not sure about omicron variant, but it did reduce chances greatly with alpha and delta variants (alpha variant being completely eradicated), vaccines were one of the best.

By what percentage did they reduce it and how do that work out in the real world?

they should go back to the drawing board and make a safe vaccine that stops spread. I'm pro vax when one works.
