I’m sorry but that’s just semantics. A mutation that reduces efficacy from “90%+” in the AstraZeneca vaccine to 60% represents a significant reduction, leaving millions more people at risk of exposure than the original road map projected.
The Government need to have an honest conversation about what restrictions will be needed and look like through the rest of 2021 until booster vaccines roll out.
