Yesterday a leaked internal report from the CDC surfaced, reported in the New York Times and the Washington Post.
It stated that the Delta Variant of the Covid Virus is more contagious than the measles, chicken pox or common cold.
“The Delta variant is more transmissible than the viruses that cause MERS, SARS, Ebola, the common cold, the seasonal flu and smallpox, and it is as contagious as chickenpox.” https://t.co/00s9y1cluI

The report recommends an immediate return to masking and social distancing strategies, and urges unvaccinated people to get vaccinated.
A separate document urged caution, because the strain is so contagious that it can be spread by vaccinated people.
The Delta Variant causes infections that are more severe. Rates of illness are surging around the country and the world.
Mask up, the CDC says, and get the jab.
