well i was taking the data from the governments own UK Health security agency regarding covid infections etc . see link

https://assets.publishing.service.go...rt-week-50.pdf

well page 3 states population impact - the uptake of vaccine first dose is 67.9% which leaves 32.1% of the population which equates to almost 23 million .

page 11 states - effectiveness against infection - it is possible to that they could still be infected with the virus and still be transmitted to others

to me the best bit of news on page 4 states 98.4% of the adult population has now have 98.4% anti bodies to covid -19 compared to 22.7% that have anti bodies from the infection alone

with so many figures and data flying around no wonder everyone is getting confused. stick to the government facts i say not the bbc / guardian or sky news !
