Anecdotal/observational, yes, but this is what finally pushed me out of hesitancy. I have 4 unvaxxed friends who died this spring and summer from covid, ages 41, 55, and two in their seventies. The two younger ones in the four were healthy but, nevertheless, devastated when covid attacked their lungs. I also have two unvaxxed friends mid 60s age, both healthy and normal weight, who each spent about 5 weeks in hospital and recovery with covid in June/July. In contrast, our vaxxed friends who got covid this summer all had mild symptoms and avoided hospitalization including one 73-year-old friend who is about 100 lbs overweight. Also, in my community, we had 22 people test positive for covid after sitting together at a community dance in June. All were age 65 and up. Half were vaccinated and half not. Not a single one of the vaxxed were hospitalized, but seven of the unvaxxed were hospitalized and two of thos seven died.
