At the same time, the UK has a lower vaccination rate and also lots of people that behave like Covid is gone, so is this going to come to us here? Or is the "mwah herd immunity" approach earlier in the UK that resulted in a huge death rate now keeping cases lower?

I heard a piece on the radio saying that the UK was in a better place than most of Europe as it is the Delta variant that is really growing in Europe whereas in the UK the Delta variant had already taken over a while ago.

Yep, I heard that too.

But the infection rate here has been persistently higher for months and is now going up again.

A big peak from a low base looks spectacular, but it all depends on what happens next, if NL can get theirs under control while ours keeps rising, then it's trouble ahead.
