Chile vs EU
-
I’m not shocked, but I’m surprised. Like Israel, they have a small population and it’s mostly urbanized. Centralized health system. But clearly they prepped so once they had supply they could take off. They appear to be taking weekends off though. Honestly that’s not too surprising either.
-
Right but we’ve had several threads on the Israeli vaccination success already. I figured no one knew about Chile’s success.

There's no UK in that graph, but they seem to be delivering doing really well, too - up at 23% (no, that can't be right - I must be reading the stats wrong), anyway they're ahead of the EU and US.
Another triumph for the NHS

Are you talking about one dose?
Or fully vaccinated?
-
OK, that explains it. The UK have focused on getting as many people as possible vaccinated with the first dose, the theory being the first dose reduces the risk significantly.
I guess we'll have to wait and see whether it's a good strategy.

Intuitively I believe this is the case.

Delta variant is basically calling bullshit on this. Those with only one shot aren't doing nearly as well as those with both.
-
I think the question is not whether one shot is better than 2.
The question is, which is better, X people with 2 shots or 2X people with 1 shot.
And then what does better mean? Maybe the case count, maybe the death toll, maybe something else.

And that’s the nature of mutations. Right call at the time, I should have clarified. But you are right about the new data on the delta variant. More worrying is that delta seems to be hitting folks that had Coronavirus so the I had Covid and don’t need a vaccine stance is going to have consequences.
