Kind of an odd question. How are vaccinations NOT working? If you're going to come back with the fact that it's not 100%, don't bother. That's a silly argument a lot of uninformed people are making.
Anti biotics work pretty well, too. But if a doc prescribes them, but the patient doesn't take them, you can't say the anti biotic doesn't work. That's the argument being made and I'm baffled people can't see that.

Good news is that we had the hightest number of vaccine doses administered here yesterday since June 18. Bad news is that it was still only 270 doses. But every one helps!
Not a lot of ambiguity here.

There's no need to worry about children, though.
Because kids under 12 are now showing up in hospitals thanks to the new variants.
The new variants continue to gain traction because we haven't achieved herd immunity.
We haven't achieved herd immunity because of the anti vax *******s.
And you think people are throwing shade at anti vaxxers now? If little kids, who have no choice in the matter, start dying from covid, people are gonna start hanging these anti vaxxers up by a noose, downtown at high noon.
Better hope it's just a blip, anti vaxxers. Because "judgement is coming, and that right soon. "

What's the survival rate of children who have been infected? What's the vaccination rate for 60+? 65+? 70+? 75+?
Auto-immunes and folks who can't get vaccinated for whatever reason are still reasonably safe as long as they do what they have to do. The fact of the matter is, as long as someone isn't old, fat, flabby, lazy, or not have like 2-3 other commorbidities, then we're going to be fine.

Honestly, I really can't understand the arguments you're making. Why are the unvaxxed being blamed? Because what's going on right now is almost entirely the unvaxxed. What's not to understand? And I live in Jacksonville, which happens to be one of the epicenters right now, so it's impossible not to see the impact. Add to that the fact that my spouse works in healthcare at a hospital right now and I see what it's doing to her and her colleagues. So yes, I blame the unvaxxed for what this is doing to my wife, one of the strongest people I know. I blame the unvaxxed for stretching our local hospitals to the point that every day things that people are being turned away for regular things they'd need to go to the hospital for. I blame the unvaxxed for all the children that are going to have to deal with the death of a parent at such a young age, when it was totally preventable.
This whole things affects a lot more people than just the person getting the virus.

You said we don’t have to worry about children and Covid. Tell that to the families of these children.
That is just one easy to find article on the subject. Do some research and you will find your take is incorrect and dangerous. Here is another, there are many more if you make an effort.
