When they're comparing vaxxed to unvaxed, they're counting all the way back to December 14 when the shots were first rolled out.
The problem is they're counting all the cases during the giant winter wave when most of the population wasn't eligible to be vaccinated. The vaccination rollout was super slow and it didn't really take off until March/April when flu season started coming to an end. The majority of these unvaccinated case/hospitalization/death numbers are counted during the two months when the vaccination rate was only 1%. I compared the graphs so you can see how misleading it is.

I got the Health Canada stats from here
To show how insane this is, on December 14, 6733 people were counted toward the total for "unvaccinated cases" even though only 5 people in the country had the vaccine at that point.
Just thought you all should know so that when you're confronted with these statistics, you can explain why it doesn't necessarily mean that 89% of cases/hospitalizations right now are unvaccinated.
True. It's misleading to expand the timeline that far to a point were only a few people were vaccinated. It skews the whole statistic.
It would be better to look at the last 30 days. Hard to find data on it. I know for example that of the 10,000 people which are currently hospitalized in Florida over 96% were unvaccinated.

Alberta provides similar numbers:

There are currently 77 people in non-ICU units with Covid 19 which are unvaccinated vs 14 who got a first dose and 15 who with two doses of the vaccine. And all 28 patients in the ICU due to Covid 19 are unvaccinated.
It's not. Even the Pfizer, Moderna and other vaccine companies released data that shows that it takes about two weeks until the vaccine reaches "optimal" protection.
They show it. Scroll down on the data Alberta releases and you can see how many days after the first or the second shot people got hospitalized or died. They don't hide as you say.
You can scroll down and see the current data. How many people who are hospitalized right now are either vaccinated or not vaccinated.
