At this point, with a less fatal, more infectious variant, the sane choice is to go get vaccinated and live your damn life. you can control your own risk, and we should mostly stop worrying about trying to protect others who also have control over their own risk.

It isn’t true that you control your own risk; vaccine effectiveness is a ratio so if unvaccinated people are out there keeping infection rates high then they are still increasing the chance of every bad outcome for vaccinated people

There is still the issue that unvaccinated people will use up scarce medical resources that all of us need. Medical professionals are refusing to deprioritize voluntarily-unvaxxed COVID patients and so a COVID surge does affect us all.

this conclusion ignores the fact that the healthcare system as we know it is metaphorically burning to the ground

If it is even less fatal (and now non respiratory) & more infectious, why vaccinate at all? Efficacy on the vaccines is poor at best and decreasing.
The actual sane choice is to stop making vaccination choice a judgement of politics, intelligence, rationale & all of us move on.
