Covid infections in Britain are rising again, and 90 percent of the dead are vaccinated. Have mRNA jabs ruined our chance at herd immunity?

New figures from Britain raise bright red flags about the direction of Covid in wealthy countries that used mRNA and DNA shots to attempt to defeat the coronavirus last year. Hospitalizations and deaths remain stubbornly high and overwhelmingly occur in vaccinated people. 
In February, 90 percent of the 1,000 Britons who died each week of Covid were vaccinated. 
New infections are not only far higher than they were before the Omicron variant emerged, they are rising again after a brief fall in February. 
And even boosters appear to offer no protection against hospitalizations in younger people. 
British data are crucial both because Britain vaccinated and boosted early and because its datasets are far more complete and less politicized than those in the United States. 
Day by day, week by week, the figures are becoming more worrisome. They hint that mRNA and DNA shots may have slowed if not completely halted the natural progression to herd immunity that occurred in earlier respiratory virus epidemics. 
In fact, Britain now reports 99 percent of adults have antibodies to Covid, mostly as the result of vaccination. 
That level is far higher than epidemiologists believed would be necessary to support herd immunity. 
Yet Covid infections, hospitalizations, and deaths continue unabated. 
Almost 12,000 Britons are now hospitalized with Covid, more than at this time last year. The most stunning chart is this one. 
Each week the British government releases a “surveillance report” which includes Covid deaths by vaccine status.

  1. The vaccines have weakened the immune systems of a generation. And perhaps the offspring.
