OK? Already that was accounted for, right below the graphs themselves on page 21. Either way you phrase it, at the end of the day, they result in the same thing.

Examining the constituent components within the relaxation wave is important for understanding the action of the vaccine and where to focus public health efforts. The top panels show the components of the relaxation wave over time: those that have not been vaccinated are in red, those receiving one dose are in green and those that have received two doses are in blue. Darker colours correspond to younger age groups (under 50) while the lighter colours correspond to the older age groups (above 80).

The relaxation wave in both hospital admission and deaths is dominated by those that have already received two doses of the vaccine, comprising around 60% and 70% of the wave respectively.

This dominance can be attributed to the high levels of uptake in the most at-risk age groups, such that vaccine failures account for more serious illness than unvaccinated individuals. If the vaccine generates a higher efficacy against severe illness than in our default model (cf green line in Figure 2.10), then both the relative and absolute size of the blue regions would decrease.

The term "vaccine failures" is used to describe their cause of death.
