In Portugal, with 89% of the total population fully vaccinated, almost 90% of UCI Covid patients are unvaccinated.
The majority of cases in the ICU are holdouts from the Delta wave and have been there for weeks.

better question: What's more dangerous, Omicron Covid or Covid vaccines?
There are a significant amount of deaths we know to be caused by covid vaccines. There are very few deaths linked to the Omicron variant, with unsure causal relationship. We don't get to look up 'linked' deaths to covid vaccines or self-reports like VAERS because those are now forbidden, verboten, haraam, thoughtcrime, etc.
I'd say there's a serious case to be made for the relative serious adverse event mitigation effectiveness, personal safety and community impact of the current regimen of vaccine boosters, compared to omicron crowding out more serious variants, preventing their spread and giving people more effective immune responses.
There might be a solid argument for the intentional spread of omicron at this point. South Africa is nearly finished with its wave and their deaths were the lowest level since the pandemic began, ebbing into background noise and dubious causal relationships.
Do you have credible sources for this? More specifically: can you quantify "significant amount"?
