'One month to fully vaccinate. Or else': Epidemiologist warns Indian Delta variant will go 'full blown' in the US as Biden falls short of his July 4 vaccine goal and cases rise 60% in the UK

Concerns are rising about the spread of the Delta variant of COVID-19 in the U.S. as President Joe Biden falls short of his July 4 vaccine rollout goal and cases explode in the UK.

The highly contagious Delta variant first identified in India now represents at least 20 percent of COVID cases in the United States, where it is expected to become dominant in a matter of weeks, according to the CDC.

In the UK, where roughly the same percentage of the total population is fully vaccinated, Delta has driven an explosion of new cases, with Sunday's new infections up 60 percent from a week ago.

'US has just 1 month to act before US becomes full blown #DeltaVariant dominant. 1 month to slow it down. 1 month to fully vaccinate. Or else. But we likely have even less time than that if CDC doesn't act soon,' tweeted Eric Feigl-Ding, a public health scientist who frequently comments on the pandemic.

Never trust someone who’s last name is pronounced “fei gul ding”.
 
Lot of claims on numbers of vaccinated getting delta.

Wonder what the numbers on previously infected getting delta are.

As many as it takes to stop Americans from watching what the democrats are really doing.
 
You can’t make this stuff up. So I saw a friend I haven’t seen in over 10 years today. He is a pharmacist at Walgreens. As I was talking to him, I wondered what Walgreens rules were regarding masks and whatnot. His response just goes to show the utter clown show of COVID.

So Walgreens says now, in the pharmacy, you only have to put on a mask when dealing with a customer. I asked him if he was vaccinated. He said absolutely not and he doesn’t plan on getting it.

So obviously COVID is so smart that it won’t infect you unless a person is directly in front of you.

And apparently Covid can count to six (feet) and won’t transgress that zone. This thing is like, smarter than Good Will Hunting. Wicked smart.

I don't mind the social distancing. It doesn't really change much in my life. I tend to stay away from people anyway. Who wants Lurch hovering over their shoulder?

I generally don't like people and agree...up to the point where it causes economic harm and the patients running the asylum.

Agreed.

The issue is the government mandate. Especially considering the lack of actual data behind any of their mandates. If they had just made recommendations or suggestions from the start most people wouldnt have minded. And I think it would have been seen by more people as a good thing. Even when the data came out saying the mandated stuff doesnt make a difference.
