UK not seeing so many hospitalisations relative to Europe despite a high number of cases.
Long term T cell immunity after antibodies wane
Looks like, AstraZeneca initially gives higher levels of T-cells
France, Germany, Spain, Belgium – restricted AZ to the under 65s
UK may have high T cells from natural infection and cross immunity from other coronavirus infections

European leaders had all these unfounded concerns about AstraZeneca and its use in older people
If you look at the data, you can see us using it early has been incredibly helpful in terms of protecting older and vulnerable people from this disease for longer
Dr Peter English
People whose immune systems have produced a strong T-cell response but a weaker antibody response might be more likely to be infected in the first place
but more likely to be able to fight the infection, and they will be much less likely to develop severe disease
It is plausible that this generated an excellent T-cell response, which means that while people can still be infected and infectious, they are unlikely to be seriously unwell
Prof Matthew Snape, Oxford University
The best T-cell responses seem to come if you give a first dose of the AstraZeneca vaccine followed by Pfizer
Prof Dame Sarah Gilbert
Third jabs may be unnecessary

Heading into the winter months, when respiratory viruses are more likely to spread,

In the fully vaccinated
https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/fully-vaccinated.html
Infections happen in only a small proportion of people who are fully vaccinated, even with the Delta variant.
When these infections occur among vaccinated people, they tend to be mild
If you are fully vaccinated and become infected with the Delta variant, you can spread the virus to others
