It is difficult to place blind trust in the video because I feel it doesn’t explain enough of where they got the numbers and how they drew their conclusions. Rumble isn’t exactly known for being the most factual when it comes to information.

From the CDC website:
https://www.cdc.gov/csels/dsepd/ss19.../section6.html
“Vaccine efficacy/effectiveness (VE) is measured by calculating the risk of disease among vaccinated and unvaccinated persons and determining the percentage reduction in risk of disease among vaccinated persons relative to unvaccinated persons. The greater the percentage reduction of illness in the vaccinated group, the greater the vaccine efficacy/effectiveness. The basic formula is written as:
Risk among unvaccinated group − risk among vaccinated group divided byRisk among unvaccinated group
OR: 1 − risk ratio”
By this formula your rumble video would suggest that the vaccinated are more susceptible to covid versus unvaccinated individuals. This we know not to be true.
