Interesting that in the EU map there is no data listed for Republic of Ireland and the world map then says no cases reported from France...

It was mentioned in another thread that France had a big historical data correction and that the number was actually negative this week. That would explain why they can't give the national figure!

That's correct. France realised that they double counted a large number of cases for weeks and have had to operate a generalised correction downwards. The internal county by county 7 days data published on santepubliquefrance has been smoothed to still report accurate current figures but I don't know if they have done so for other data sources.

heading again to hell - just my feeling
But some very worrying developments in the UK (exported to LIS - thank you) and yes, we are moving slowly again against the wall. In a couple of weeks we are all done (the stupid and unnecessary footballl EM helping), should have closed hermetically the Schengen space to protect ourselves. Now it is too late and of course I sincerely hope being completely wrong!
Also we should be very very worried about what is happening in Chile, a lot of vaccinated (admittedly mainly with Sinovac) people and the cases just do not go down.

Chile has vaccinated 46% of its population, hence 54% is not vaccinated, corresponding to 19 650 000 * 0.54 = 10,6 millions people susceptible to be infected.
You need 80% of the population to be vaccinated for vaccine alone to have a clear effect. When less than half of the forest has burned, there is still an awful amount of forest to burn.
What happening in Chile is normal if people are counting on vaccine only at this stage.

Of course we should maintain most restrictions,, open up gradually etc. What the UK plans to do on 21 June and the US on 4 July is foolish. Even being double vaccinated I myself am keeping all the precautions out of respect for others too.

The UK is postponing further opening by one month.

UK is the only country in Europe seeing an increase in cases, due to the Delta variant.
That is despite the highest level of vaccinations among the larger Euro countries and very strict entry requirements with testing and quarantine regimes.
So are we to conclude that vaccination and restrictions don't quite work as well as we might hope?
Why won't EU and US encounter the same surge in infections that the UK is experiencing? They can bar entry by people from the UK and India but the Delta variant is probably already in all these countries.

It shows how close the war will be with the virus, it finds one weakness and regains a foothold...
