It is an Israel study and while the vaccine might not protect you from getting it, does it protect from serious illness? Another thing to note is that perhaps those who aren't vaccinated yet in Israel are being more careful than those who aren't so just because it seems more prevalent in vaccinated than unvaccinated in the studies means nothing unless you compare how each group is behaving. I would also want to know how far from being fully vaccinated were those who got it as well as other factors such as age and medical factors.
