The bottom line is that the government is now, finally, going for "herd immunity" of the young in preference to getting them all vaccinated, which it could presumably choose to do and get done over the summer if it really wanted to. We are about to find out what the effects of semi-deliberately infecting 15 odd million young people actually are (estimates are that 85% of the unvaccinated will get it in the coming months). The percentage that suffer might be small, but with such a high absolute number of cases that could still be a lot of people. We're also about to find out just how effective these vaccines really are.
