To reinforce this, one of the statistics that the beeb have wheeled out is that in the most vulnerable group being vaccinated (in the UK), aged 80+, one in ten of them will die regardless of covid in the next year. Quoted from "How to vaccinate the world -- Vaccine Hesitancy" [0] from 12 minutes in to 15 minutes. (And because it's BBC sounds, for some reason it randomly skips episodes when I load the page).

The entire series is well worth a listen, data driven and statistics heavy.

> the beeb

Never heard this term. From context I'm assuming it's slang for the BBC?

Yep, and even more oddly:

> It is also known colloquially as "The Beeb", "Auntie", or a combination of both (as "Auntie Beeb") [0]
