This is happening in a small midwestern city of approximately 14000 people. There is a significant surge in the number of sick individuals calling out of school and long waits at the local hospital.

According to the article the majority of those getting sick are unvaccinated, although it does not give their age. It does say that those who are vaccinated and getting sick are generally over 50.

It seems like this data is represented of the larger, global trends. So let me ask this question. Suppose ADE and AOS is actually happening. As far as I understand it this means we should expect two things,

1) A decrease in the effectiveness of the vaccine after an initial boost to immunity
2) Covid 19 should keep micro evolving so that it is less lethal but more transmissible to the unvaccinated

It looks like number 1 is happening but not number 2. Why is that? What am I missing?
