What’s the deal with the delta variant? Some of my chums think we may lock down again. And is the market really this concerned? Is it all malarkey?

It’s absolutely ravaging the unvaccinated community, and the big danger is that with every transmission it makes mutations more likely. For now the vaccine is still holding up well, albeit less than pre-delta strains. The worry is that it will mutate into a version that the vaccine doesnt hold up against and now we are back to square 1 2020 style lock downs

I think that would absolutely break some people and would result in violence, especially retaliating vaccinated people against the unvaccinated who would have put us in this situation with their ignorance/stupidity and apathy

It’s breaking through the vaccines.

Are vaccinated people at significant risk? No. The vaccine protection is still almost entirely covering severe symptoms. But carrying the virus puts the unvaccinated people around you at risk, which includes immunocompromised individuals and children.

As long as kids aren’t eligible for the vaccine, I can see more restrictions over the next few months to keep the delta variant at bay. But once the primary at risk population is voluntarily unvaccinated people…. It will be a difficult sell to lock down in any way

MD1 One thing to keep an eye on is that the UK is seeing far more hospitalizations of fully vaxxed individuals. Unclear why this is the case: AZN inadequacy to delta, patients are more willing to go to the hospital for symptoms due to cost, etc. are all possibilities
