Every wave now is also very likely to be less of a strain on the health care system than the last.
The virulence of the virus isn't changing that much, the biggest effect is that most people have gained immunity.
The fact that 90% of the people in hospitals are unvaccinated though while vaccination rates are at least >60% everywhere is a sign though that the unvaccinated population still has failed to achieve a level of immunity equal to vaccination.
They're going to just accumulate immunity the hard way though with more human casualties and death. There isn't a lot to be done about that though.
Eventually the rates of unvaccinated in the hospital with each wave will start reflecting the population rate of unvaccinated and we'll be at pretty much 100% seroprevalence finally.
