Also more people will be double vaccinated, and more people will have some form of natural immunity post-infection, and infection is not a measure of severity... The report itself said the results weren't worrying.
Fair. I'm still worried about whatever the next variant is though. Antibodies, whether from vax or infection don't last that long. Covid19 has kept the mutations of concern coming so far. How do things look if in the Autumn we are looking at Epsilon (or whatever the next one will be) and the vaccines are only 35% or 40% effective...
I don't mean to be a doom monger, just feels like the widespread mood that the pandemic is nearing it's end might be misplaced. And maybe that mood might make things worse.
