This is why I always lump partially and fully vaccinated together. This is why I include the first 14 days in most of my calculations. This is why private VE was about 40-50% over the last year (less in other places) and public VE was negative (in other words, the vaccine caused cases which meant the chance of getting a case in the vaccinated was higher even if it was slightly lower than the unvaccinated... Ie. Private VE).

Not sure if that makes sense I probably would need a long post or article to fully explain, but in any case, calculating VE for a few months post second dose is idiotic at best.

Note that 0-14 days post 1st jab is counted as UNVACCINATED! So, at least HALF of the unvaccinated deaths can be safely moved over to the partially VAXXED. Then redraw the charts and have a second look.
