Actually, given that we are still less than 2 years into a global pandemic caused by a novel virus, the fact that we have a vaccine manifestly capable of reducing the vast majority of cases to something no more serious than a bad cold *is* an overwhelming success. The hard correlation between infections and hospitalisation and death has been broken, even in cases of the Indian/Delta variant that is around twice as infectious as the original Wuhan strain from which the vaccine was developed. In the face of this, to regard the global vaccination effort as anything less than overwhelmingly successful is perverse.
