Here's a paper confirming what was already established by scientists in England, and expanding on it by pointing out that Delta spreads almost as easily among the vaccinated as it does among the unvaccinated.
The case referred to in the paper relates to an outbreak in an Israeli hospital, where 96% of the patients and staff were vaccinated.
The paper is a little deceptive in that it omits 16 staff members from the table of cases. We have to read the text to get the full picture. However, there's sufficient data in the table to give us some valuable insights without having to read the whole report.
Out of the 23 cases in the table, 2 were unvaccinated. That's about 9% of the total sample. This means that 91% of the cases were among the vaccinated, which is only marginally better than the vaccination rate of 96%.
Furthermore, all the critical and severe cases, including 6 deaths, occurred in the vaccinated. The unvaccinated got mild symptoms.
The logical conclusion from this is that the vaccine is counterproductive. It is ineffective in keeping the virus from spreading, and the vaccinated end up more severely ill than the unvaccinated. Yet, the paper concludes that the proper response to this is to give everybody a booster shot.
