Fake news. The study shows the opposite:
It only analyzed people who *tested positive for Covid-19* (and you're much less likely to test positive if vaxxed)
It shows that if you're vaccinated & test positive, it's more likely to be Omicron than Delta (which is good—it's milder)

This is fake news. But we see the same problem, where right-wing pundits with bad reading comprehension skills and no scientific literacy misrepresent studies they don't understand.
The study shows the opposite: vaccination makes Covid milder. That's good

The ONS study only looks at people who test positive for Covid, the majority of whom are unvaccinated, only a minority vaccinated
And it shows that unvaxxed and positive are more likely to have Delta (more dangerous), whereas vaxxed and positive more likely have Omicron (milder)
And it shows that unvaxxed and positive are more likely to have Delta (more dangerous), whereas vaxxed and positive more likely have Omicron (milder)
To correct this fake news, it should say:
According to new ONS data, the triple-vaccinated are 4.5 times more likely than the unvaxxed to have the milder Omicron strain instead of Delta *if they test positive* (but they're much less likely to be positive)
