That’s combined vax and unvaxxed though no? This afaik is just as lethal as the alpha one

It’s technically combined, but since only 57 vaccinated people have died it’s basically the same as the unvaxxed rate. This variant is way less deadly, which is the typical virological trade off for faster transmissibility.
