A lot of the stories I’ve seen are of people getting your “standard” covid. But I digress…
The delta variant was already out before a big chunk of the population got vaccinated. So even if we had 100% participation in getting vaccinated we would still have a “problem” with the Delta variant. Do we now need a new vaccine for the Delta variant too? Seems to me to be a never ending cycle. Or in other words… viruses behaving like they have since human existence.
