Yeah. Delta infects a lot of people. But their death rate is still very very low. And they essentially skipped a wave due to vaccine coverage and the measures they took and are entering their third wave right now while other countries are already well into a 4th.
They are averaging 4 deaths/day. Until that climbs, this is just more a case of the vaccine’s shortcomings in stopping transmission, but evidence that it works quite well at preventing the most serious outcomes.

Sweden’s averaging ~725 cases/day
Canada is averaging 2200 cases/day
Canada has close to 4x the population, only 3X the cases. Also has half the deaths/capita during whole of Covid.
I guess Canadian model > Swedish model
