If everyone took the vaccine it would have lessened the length of time or prevent the delta and alpha variants. In fact more than enough of the population has been vaccinated so the alpha and delta variant arent much of a problem. You are welcome.

How do you know that? You're just posing a hypothetical. IF x thing happened, which didn't happen, y thing would have happened. The vaccines turned out to be pretty dogshit at actually helping anyone except the elderly.
You're also not counting people who died from the vaccine itself, or from suicide or alcoholism, or despair, or who might die in the future from any of those things. You're not counting or caring about any of those numbers; it's just a beep-boop analysis where the only thing that matters is whether covid killed somebody or didn't. It's a dumb way to analyze the issue.
Same thing you do with the gun issue. Ban guns so there are no more emotionally-gripping mass shootings that are all over TV, but in exchange every single person who might have ever saved their own life or somebody else's life with a gun will be dead instead. And you'll be blissfully unaware of all those deaths, because "woman fends off rapist with gun" at best only makes the local news in whatever town it occurred.
Everything is a tradeoff on some level, you have to take those things into consideration and not be manipulated by fear and propaganda.
