You are one of the few who is not fixating on death count alone, in terms of breakthrough infections. There is a multiplicity of other adverse effects that come come from a non lethal COVID case, and some of those are likely permanent.

There are 'variant versus specific vax' pairings that can simply be labelled as pretty much fails in terms of even preventing infection. The classic one so far is AstraZeneca versus Beta (10.4% efficacy), but here are other pairings that are also far from ideal in terms of staving off infections and/or mitigation of the severity of the symptoms.
