These ones?

So in summary:
• B.1.617.2 has sent cases rising again even in a country with very good vaccine coverage
• But vaccines are keeping cases and hospital admissions largely among the younger age groups whose risk of deaths from Covid is much lower

To be clear, this is not a "so everything’s fine!" thread.

Everything is not fine, and with hospital admissions rising again it’s clear the reopening roadmap needs to be re-evaluated.

But this wave is not like the other waves, and it’s important to keep that in mind.
