Agree with everything in the excellent article. But it left me thinking that while we need to continue to press on vaccination efforts, if we are about to be hit by the Delta surge we cant vaccinate fast enough in the next month or so to make a dent in this.

Agree some of the tragedy is baked in. But NPIs and better awareness can help. Also some significant protection kicks in as soon as two weeks after first dose, so rapid vaccination can get ahead of some of it, especially before we hit Fall.
