Vaccinated People Spread The Delta Variant, CDC Says

[Durian Fiend]

Many thanks to everyone for your attempts to convert me to the cult of covid.  I remain unconvinced that something that has only killed 0.036% of the State is a grave danger.  As far as plagues go, this one is not impressive. 

Don't worry Carey, if I fall prey to the Delta variant I won't go to the hospital.  I'll do what I did when I contracted covid last year - stay home and rest for a week, just like when I catch the seasonal flu.

Enjoy your so-called team sport, I will choose to remain a spectator.

"Covid is a team sport."

Agreed.  And the other team is not only those who will die or suffer long term effects but is also the need to eradicate the virus before it mutates into something worse.  We've already seen the difference in contagion between the original virus and the delta variant.  I don't think anyone wants to see what comes next.

What comes next is Lambda which originated in Peru and is being introduced to the US by our new visitors from South and Central America.  

Unless we choose to intercept all people crossing our borders and quarantine or vaccinate them, Lambda and future variants will keep coming.

You tested positive last year or just think you got it?  If the latter, it most likely wasn’t Covid unless you traveled out of state.
In any case, if/when your unvaccinated immune system encounters this virus, chances are excellent you’ll be fine if in good health. That’s my status, yet IMO it’s a no brainer to get vaccinated. Don’t want to take the chance of a bummer illness or pass it on to someone else. 
Yes, new variants will come along, thanks to so many unvaccinated people out there who aren’t in good health. In many countries people haven’t access to vaccines. This is not the case in US though. No excuse! It’s a “shake my head” situation.
