5. Well there's still 22% percent of 12+ who aren't fully vaccinated

That's an awful lot of people and all restrictions have been removed. The link between cases, hospitalizations and deaths has been massively weakened. We are coming off a huge outbreak locally - much bigger than anything we have had before - but hospitalizations
have gone down. No- one has died for nearly 3 weeks, and the latest figure for patients on ventilation is 1.

If you check those worldometer stats UK is way down the list on death rate compared to case rates.

The sad thing is that if we'd had a functioning government rather than a bunch of bone idle, bone headed, corrupt racists tens of thousands of unnecessary deaths would not have happened. The vaccine roll-out has been a success, everything else has been a ghastly, tragic shit show.
