Israel, for example, best country in the world from a vaccine perspective, impressive reduction in R. Compare that to rates in Bahrain (also positive vaccination rates), increasing infections. UK stats are currently pretty good, but it does feel like there is another wave incoming... unless vaccinations really are a panacea.
I feel like we’re heading for another wave. How that translates to hospital admissions is anyone’s guess.
I think this is the main point now to see how effective the vaccine has been. People will still get infected, but having the hospitals at sustainable levels is key.
