Second datapoint for today:
UK Cases vs Hospital Admissions

Cases are high, yes..
but they are still broadly following the trajectory in place since the vaccination reached >2/3 of the population.

It looks enticing, but I always ask: AT WHAT COST?

EDIT:
Today, 40,954 cases, 263 dead.
Yesterday, a total of 8,693 in hospital.
Admitting 950-1200 a day.
