CDC MMWR for July shows Delta spreading rapidly even for fully vaccinated

CDC MMWR reports that the Delta variant is highly contagious, comparable to chickenpox EVEN FOR FULLY VACCINATED!

The good news is that while even the fully vaccinated can still easily catch COVID Delta you will see only a mild case in most vaccinated people.

Unvaccinated who catch COVID Delta are in deep trouble, it is not only easier to catch, it is more dangerous.

That is the reason for the change in mask mandates. The infected but vaccinated people may not even have symptoms but will carry a very heavy viral load in the sinus area and therefore can easily spread.

Delta is also much more dangerous for the elderly.

We are in for a very bad fall and winter.

Time to begin stockpiling what you need to stay isolated again.

“During July 2021, 469 cases of COVID-19 associated with multiple summer events and large public gatherings in a town in Barnstable County, Massachusetts, were identified among Massachusetts residents; vaccination coverage among eligible Massachusetts residents was 69%. Approximately three quarters (346; 74%) of cases occurred in fully vaccinated persons (those who had completed a 2-dose course of mRNA vaccine [Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna] or had received a single dose of Janssen [Johnson & Johnson] vaccine ≥14 days before exposure).” Outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 Infections, Including COVID-19 Vaccine Breakthrough Infections, Associated with Large Public Gatherings — Barnstable County, Massachusetts, July 2021 | MMWR (cdc.gov)
