i'd imagine this is related to selection pressure. the fact that a partially vaccinated population applies a pressure on the virus that essentially filters out strains that aren't resistant to the vaccine, in a lot of ways its the same issue you see with the overuse and improper use of antibiotics and the resistant bacteria that have become more and more of an issue.

the only fix is to massively increase vaccination rates and maintain strong protocols (masking/distance/stuff like that) to reduce spread until we hit the tipping point where the virus stops spreading to more people then were originally infected.

the takeaway from this isn't that vaccines dont work, its that vaccine levels withing individual countries mean shit all when half the world doesn't even have access to the vaccine.
