One need only dig a little to find relevant info.

“Most of the cases we’re seeing now of deaths … many of them are in older people,” Weber said. “The majority of older people, in particular — because of their risks for COVID — are vaccinated. So it’s not surprising if the majority of people are vaccinated. Even if the vaccines are working, the majority of deaths will be in people who are vaccinated.”
“The real question is not what percentage of deaths or hospitalization are in vaccinated or an unvaccinated?” Weber said. “It’s by age. What’s the risk of death in vaccinated versus unvaccinated individuals?”
Taking that into account, the death rate for unvaccinated people remains significantly higher than it is for vaccinated and for boosted, once those figures are adjusted for age.
