For me, that means it is mostly delta and not omicron. Considering the delay on hospitalisation/death and the appearance of omicron in Europe.
Just like the UK, the Netherlands was indeed close to severe issues in healthcare.

- the-dude 5y ago> For me, that means it is mostly delta and not omicron. For sure it was not omicron. But that is not what this subthread is about. We had ~83% vacrate and record high infections. And health care nearing capacity. And OP was doubting the effeciacy of the vaccines. Maybe he is right. High vacrates don't seem to do much.
- NicoJuicy 5y agoDeaths were ~ halved while indeed record cases. But I think it's more about the elderly being vaccinated first and that it was a long time ago.
