It's true that it is not the vaccinated who are dying in great numbers, but they are catching and spreading the Delta variant more than those with natural immunity from a past covid infection.

Study: Recovered COVID patients don't benefit from vaccine
New US study finds natural infection to COVID provides robust long-term immunity, with vaccination providing no added benefit.

The results of the laboratory study are not evident in the real-world data. I'm sure a study somewhere will figure out why.

One thing to note: the laboratory study found that "the Delta variant is both more transmissible and better able to evade prior immunity caused due to previous infection." which kind of seems to argue against your second link.
