But then people started dying so fast they had no place to store the bodies. Ordinary folks were dropping like flies and people like my parents were being hit the hardest. So I changed my mind about it for my parents and other people's parents.

From what we now know of how the vaccine works, you getting the vaccine does very little to protect your parents from dying to covid. Your parents getting the vaccine could do quite a bit to prevent your parents from dying to covid, assuming the vaccine works to teach the body how to fight covid
The fine print is it could be argued that getting over covid easier due to being vaccinated might involve releasing fewer droplets into an environment (due less severe symptoms) so maybe in that regard someone being vaccinated could slightly protect those around from catching it but that would probably only be for those living in your household
It’s not your fault that you believed getting the vaccine meant you wouldn’t spread covid, this is something we were all told. This always seemed odd to me, because the body still needs to catch covid to beat it. And if the vaccine is causing the body to beat covid so handily, with so few symptoms, then it would make you wonder if you would be MORE likely to spread covid due to not even realizing you have it
I think there are a lot of hypotheticals with all of it, including lockdowns and masks
