And I predict you’ll be getting another one in a few months. Six months at the most. I’ll mark this in my calendar to come back here and check six months from now.

From the Irish Times (10/9/2021):

"About half (54%) of all Covid-19 patients in hospital and in intensive care are fully vaccinated against the disease, new figures show.

One-sixth of deaths of people with the virus since April have been categorised as breakthrough infections of fully vaccinated patients, according to Health Service Executive data.

More than one-quarter of ICU admissions since July were also breakthrough infections of fully vaccinated people.

The proportion of vaccinated people requiring treatment in hospital has been increasing over recent months, as the number of vaccinated people in the wider population has risen."

Do we know which vaccine was widely used in the UK and Ireland? I believe it was Astra Zeneca, which we know does not have the same protection as Moderna and Pfizer.
