Dear MEL Topic Readers,

With the more contagious Delta variant, some officials are issuing new mask guidance

The Delta variant, a strain of Covid-19, was first detected in India late last year. It is believed to be more transmissible and dangerous than others and is breaking out in some parts of the world, especially in India, the UK, and the US. Even though nearly half of the US population has been vaccinated, the figure is far from the 70% minimum guideline to prevent the virus from spreading. In some states, vaccination rates are still below 35%. Some people seem either afraid of the risk of vaccination or ignorant of the danger of coronavirus.

According to the health experts, the known and potential benefits of Covid vaccination is far larger than the risks, including pregnant women, who are more vulnerable to complications caused by Covid-19. But even if you are vaccinated, you could get infected and spread the virus. That’s why some regions of the US, and some other countries, have reinstated mask and social distance guidance. The good news is that, unlike the flu, once you’re vaccinated with some type of Covid vaccine, like Pfizer’s or Modena’s, the vaccine seems to keep an immune response up for years.

No quick solution or relief, yet. Get vaccinated, wear a mask, and keep social distance.

Read the article and learn about the continuing battle with coronavirus.
