Those figures should be lower at 80% vax rates but just how much lower is up for debate given that other 80% countries like the UK (0.32%), Israel (0.43%) and Florida (1.5%) - albeit the latter with a much higher average age population, are still not a whole lot lower.

Then it's just a matter of how many cases we see.
Russ, it may have been asked before but do you have figures for flu deaths on the 2 to 3 years in Australia before Covid hit ?
