I'm not a statistician but 1.27% applied to anything is small, or is that what you tell your girlfriend?

There’s enough for everyone to hit the panic button.
You don't need evidence of anything to cause panic, as we have seen.

So you accept vaccines are waning and your simplistic “how many people have antibodies” statistic is absolutely irrelevant.
I accept that, like a flu jab, the efficacy of the vaccine against COVID will vary, and annual or bi-annual vaccines may be required. The higher the immune response in a population can only be a good thing n'est pas?

So pray, tell Pierre at what threshold for hospitalisations and deaths would you bring in restrictions?
I wouldn't. We have vaccines.

Because ultimately if you have no threshold participating in an evidence based discussion with you is pointless.
But if the evidence shows you don't need a threshold................
