Double jabbing provides no protection against transmission.

It helps with hospitalisation though and transferring a stronger strain apparently. But my other point stands, if you have underlying conditions why would you put yourself in that position?
Vaccination helps with underlying conditions. The unvaccinated shouldn't be going to matches

Vaccinated and unvaccinated should not be going to matches

A member of the National Public Health Emergency Team (Nphet) has warned that what happens next regarding restrictions and lockdowns in Ireland is up to the public and their individual actions.

Dr Colm Henry, a member of Nphet and the HSE's chief clinical officer, said the public are the country's primary line of defence against Covid-19 and what happens next is due to their actions.

Nobody wants to go back to restrictions and lockdown, he told Newstalk Breakfast.

People needed to reduce the number of contacts they have, he said, adding that "you don't have to go out every night of the week".

Ireland one of the highest jabbed countries in the Europe.

November 12th 2020 there were 385 covid cases without vaccines

November 12th 2021 there are 5,483 covid cases with vaccines.
The difference is Delta. It's 50% more infectious than the previous variant.
Without the vaccine hospitals wouldn't be functioning.

What's the rate of vaccinated v unvaccinated getting tested?

Dr O'Loughlin said it is particularly hard to keep going when there is a "lack of visibility of how this is going to turn around".
He said previous lockdowns had a positive impact on reducing case numbers, but there is no desire to re-introduce lockdowns or restrictions now.
"Without that it's not clear to us working on the frontline what the trigger event will be to turn things around to stop this 3000-4000 cases per day...they're the ICU patients of two weeks time, some of those patients."
He said he is not advocating for a lockdown, but warned that society will be forced into it if things are not turned around.
He also said there is an almost equal number of unvaccinated people and vaccinated vulnerable people in ICU.

Just wondering are unvaccinated people less likely to get tested?

What are the proportions of positive tests among the two groups?

These 5483 people - are they all people with symptoms coming up with positive tests? Or a lot of people who get tested regularly, regardless of symptoms (like myself). People getting tested under work medical surveillance programmes?

Are vaccinated people completely throwing caution to the wind and exposing themselves to high risk of transmission?

Because those numbers are far out of proportion to even a 1:1 rate among vaccinated and unvaccinated.

My folks (70s) got their boosters at the weekend, so that's a weight off - hopefully it's getting well distributed among that group and will work it's way down.

I'm hearing of Christmas office parties in Dublin being cancelled. Only a small % at this stage, but no harm to keep big indoor gatherings down.

looks like they going to lock down the unvaccinated they are planting  the seeds

That could be because *checks notes*, immunity wanes as it does with all vaccines.
