Reply to comment by JurassicCotyledon in A study in the US has found, compared to unvaccinated people, protection from the risk of dying from COVID during the six-month omicron wave for folks who had two doses of an mRNA vaccine was 42% for 40- to 59-year-olds; 27% for 60- to 79-year-olds; and 46% for people 80 and older. by Wagamaga
The article stated that the study did not consider any data related to reduction in transmission.
My comment is that, due to that limitation, it is too simplistic to make such a broad recommendation. A better study is needed.

>the study only looked at deaths from COVID and did not consider infections the vaccine may have prevented or made less severe
Prevented infections reduce the spread among all cohorts. Making recommendations based on death benefits only is simplistic and not helpful.

I know. I saw that episode when it aired originally and hated it. So, of course, that video haunts me.
