(And not that one off from P-town that was reported as 74% of the new cases were vaccinated)

I read it several places, so I had to track it down again. Here's one.
Delta variant: Pfizer Covid vaccine 39% effective in Israel, prevents severe illness
I read somewhere else that had a nice breakdown by time of Vaccination over time and more recent vaxers had better protection. I'll try to find it again.
