and one of the most vaccinated countries, now that don't make sense, although what did make sense of the whole thing anyway

So a refresher. The vaccine is not and never was a preventative. It is not like a polio or smallpox vaccine that confers IMMUNITY. It only reduces the infectivity and mortality. It also has limited durability because the virus, as viruses do, mutate. It has further problems with PEOPLE. People who refuse to isolate, vaccinate, and practice safe behaviors.
It makes complete sense. While this is not a particular Portuguese set of behaviors and wrong beliefs, there are customs and practices here that stimulate new infections. Age, health and close personal socialization in condensed physical areas and tight social groups.
Most of the vaccines we are now running on will cease to be effective by November. They WORKED exactly as they were designed to by REDUCING infectivity for a SHORT period, and subsequently reduced the symptoms and mortality in those infected. It worked. Out of 545,875,873 cases worldwide there have been only 6,343,924 Deaths.
If we had NOT done all the atrocious things we have done to reduce deaths ie. Vaccines, masks, isolation etc. We would be looking at a VASTLY higher death count.
This pandemic is not a one time event. It's not over. It's still out there and pretending it's not and reverting to past behaviors exposes us to the virus. I am a retired RN. I assure you I will take another booster or superior vaccine gladly. I avoid the gym when its crowded. I stay out of crowds and YES, I still caught it. But I would wager a years salary that my outcome would have been FAR less successful if I had not vaccinated. It reduces but only partially and temporarily prevents infection. Thats the bottom line.

Wrong. It was designed to prevent infections. This narrative was pushed for a long time, people were blocked from social media, experts were marginalised... until it was not possible to hide breakout infections. Then narrative changed. People that push new narrative behave like gold fish. This new narrative is also false and slowly a new one is forming, but with even greater pushback.

Jonathan, did you miss this part of the article:
"Portugal is also the EU country with the most new daily deaths per million inhabitants in the last seven days and is third in the world in this indicator."
and
