helen: yes, absolutely.umbers look fantastic. if you look at the year on year numbers, for growth it is very high, first quarter, 18.3% and second quarter would still be as high in our view as 7.2%. the numbers look good, and the inflation looks low. almost like a goldilocks situation. from a policymakers perspective, 2021 is where they do not have to worry so much about short-term inflation or a downside are upside. so now that they are having in our view a window of opportunity to do something that it probably wanted to do for some time on the structural long term side. haslinda: you talk about inflation. there is a divergence there and prices linked to commodities are high. prices linked to households, not so. looking stable. how do you read that? helen: i would say the ppi inflation is high mainly driven by the commodity prices, and they have surged quite significantly. at the same time, i would say there is limited evidence that inflationary pressure has been passed on from upstream to midstream to down

thanks for the question, helen. the short _ beatty. thanks for the question, helen.r is - beatty. thanks for the question, helen. the short answer is that l beatty. thanks for the question, i helen. the short answer is that we don�*t yet know. we do have data now showing that antibodies are persisting for at least six months, but antibodies on their own are not the totality of the protection you get from vaccines, you also get important t—cell related protection, which is more difficult to measure. we can�*t make time go faster, so we simply have to watch very vigilantly to make sure that we�*re not starting to make sure that we�*re not starting to see lots and lots cases of covid—19 in people who have been fully vaccinated. that would be a tell—tale sign that vaccine effectiveness is starting to wane. and we just don�*t know. it is perfectly plausible that in the absence of variants, then the vaccine protection, particularly in the younger adults, might last for quite some time. but we are entrusting ourjcvi, who have done such a good job so far, to look at this. th
