The pandemic is over for people who are fully vaccinated (and have likely already had Covid on top of that).
Vaccines do make us less likely to spread Covid to others, but the crucial part is that they protect us. It's good for the public if everyone is vaccinated, but it's not a vital component of keeping ourselves safe. It's not like masking, where we needed others to use masks.
As for the immunocompromised, all companies should make a policy to allow those people to work remotely forever.
