Ok, So I know we have low vax numbers, but why are vaxxed ppl getting sick?

Not sure about the source of your confusion.
First of all nobody ever claimed any vax was 100% efficacious. So, from the very beginning we knew some vaxxed people would still get infected. If you expected perfect, you were kidding yourself.
Besides, some is pure math.
If a locale of 100,00 people had 100% vax rate, and had one case, the % of breakthrough cases would be 100% of cases yet the infection rate would be 0.001%.
We have to maintain proper context with the numbers.
Keeping the number simple & worst case, one is 1/8th as likely to get infected, by any variant compared to being unvaccinated.
If one is infected, a vaxxed person is 1/9th as likely to get a serious case.
So, for every 72 unvaxxed people who get really sick, 1 vaxxed person gets to the same place.
That seems like a pretty good shift in the odds as to not provoke consternation over the failure to achieve perfection.
