The UK has very definitely not ended our lockdown. We have started phasing out lockdown measures, but most are still very much in place.

Yes, talking about Israel. UK's vaccination rate is better than most countries', but not so high that it would be surprising if they had not gotten to herd immunity yet (given the uncertainty about how many people have already gotten it and recovered). But in Israel's case, their percent vaccinated (and percent recovered) is high enough that it would be disquieting news if they had not gotten to herd immunity.
