Does anyone know why some countries are having a third wave...

And do we expect one once the impact of schools reopening is felt?

Is it the British variant fuelling it as I believe this was responsible for the wildfire spread causing our second wave and lockdown?

1 in 3 of the Uk population has antibodies I think? Will this make a difference?

And will we get the Johnson & Johnson or Moderna vaccine to add to those given?

The dips between the waves have always been artificially achieved by lockdowns and restrictions and different countries have taken a different approach. Relaxing restrictions always leads to cases going up.

Very likely will happen here too but hopefully the fact so many are now vaccinated will help and lead to fewer hospitalisations and deaths.

Apparently there are supply issues with Moderna too so it's delayed... was due "in the spring".

We had our third wave in January. Second wave was in October/November when tiers were introduced.

We are getting Moderna in the spring I believe.
