I think that is a big jump to make. There are no restrictions on the unvaxxed. We just have to get tested if we want to take part in society (go to bars, concerts, etc)

The Danish covid passport does not discriminate between vaccination and a negative test. Both give access to everything

Ironically, this means that lots of vaxxed people don't get tested anymore.

Even with free testing, having to test every other day to do some social activity is a burden. At the very least, you have to go to your local test center to do something not particularly enjoyable, and wait for the results.

I'm sure most of the unvaccinated simply avoid "unnecessary" social events, or didn't do them in the first place (i.e. "I don't socialize, I don't need a vaccine").

Consider that unvaccinated must quarantine before entering countries like France, and are being removed from the workforce and military in countries like USA, reducing the number of edges on their graph.

Maybe I’m missing something but the pattern is what I’d expect at this stage. Most people acknowledge the risk to themselves of traveling or congregating, and subsequently to others who are immunocompromised or unvaccinated. What’s unpredictable is whether new variants will spread more readily, but we’re discovering that now, I guess.

Well quarantine for entry to France and firing soldiers in the US doesn't effect the situation in Denmark :)
Given global travel today, _it could_. My point is the widespread application of these rules is putting vaccinated people together to maintain convenience and isolating unvaccinated people to prevent healthcare overload.
