So vaccine escape actually isn’t here after all. Glad we agree on that.
The statistics for hospitalisation with regards to the Indian variant are nowhere near vaccine escape. 88% protection from Pfizer is excellent performance by any measure. At the outset of this pandemic nobody would have complained at a vaccine with Oxford-Astra’s 60% effectiveness either - 60% is about as effective as a flu jab ever gets.
Sure, vaccine escape is likely in time. That’s how life works. But in the meantime, you might try to sound less gleeful at the prospect.
