Are we back to not learning from each other? (Short thread)

The vaccination campaigns on the continent are roughly 6-7 weeks or so behind the UK one. And, curiously, the same seems to apply to the mood - "hooray, freedom". 
The incidence rates are at a similarly low level as the UK saw a couple of weeks back: Germany is now at 13.2. The UK was at the low point in May. It is now back up to 70.
So: proceed with caution. But there are lots and lots of caveats and variables - mutations, the impact of vaccination, of two vaccinations, of blocking travel from countries with mutations etc. etc.
What amazes me, though, is the extent to which parallel debates take place in various countries, often without benefiting sufficiently from the experience of the other.
