Delta is a more transmissible variant, but unlike 6 months ago, we are prepared. We have the tools we need, and know what we need to do.

To hold our progress and beat the virus — we need to vaccinate every eligible American.

I wonder why states like Colorado basically had zero delta spike?

And nobody will call him on this BS. We had all the tools and know how we needed in January. Maybe if he and Kamala wouldn’t have crapped on the vaccine bc Trump made it then maybe more people would’ve been vaccinated now.

Hard to explain. How is Tennessee completely missing it too? They are situated right in the southeast hotbed

If you are worried about the virus, you're free to get vaccinated, wear a mask, or stay at home. You have no reason to worry about other people when you just take care of yourself.

I know the majority of people getting it and who are in the hospital are unvaccinated people.

The only thing that sort of concerns me is that because of all of these idiots not getting vaccinated, the virus will continue to evolve and get stronger to the point it is stronger than the vaccine, but until that starts to happen I don't see the point in reporting all of these numbers and getting people worked up.

if it takes out someone who isn't vaccinated, then that's one less unvaccinated person we don't have to worry about.

There is at least a couple of doctors I have seen that are concerned that if the virus is able hang around in kind of a slow burn situation then it might give it time to mutate. That was just a theory I saw and could be nothing at all.


Here’s the problem.

We could have 100% vaccination rate in Louisiana and the US and it makes zero difference.

Where have all the variants come from?

India, now South America is the latest one.

This is all around the world. If it’s going to mutate it’s going to mutate especially since vaccinated people can still get it. Stop worrying about the lack of vaccinations leading to variants, it’s silly.

Israel: 7,700 new cases of COVID…Of those, just 72 (1%) in people known to have had COVID before, but more than 3,000 new cases (40% of the total) in people who had been vaccinated. If everyone took the shot, COVID might still exist.


Cases

Whats the 7 day average of covid deaths in Israel?



Wait for it….

I'll speculate.

We went to Gatlinburg, TN last summer and mask usage was almost non-existent. Crowds were plentiful and it was damn near like COVID didn't exist.

I wonder if TN reached herd immunity quicker than some other areas?

Louisiana has had far more infected per capita than Tenn

Not to mention the area he’s referring to (Gatlinburg) is a tourist city/town anyway where people are in and out
