Why is COVID 19 Delta variant concerning?

It’s spreading fast. Delta variant is thought to be 43% to 90% more transmissible than previous COVID-19 variants. Experts believe delta is anywhere from 30% to 100% more infectious than alpha.

Symptoms appear to be more severe. People may be more likely to end up in the hospital if they have the delta variant. Studies suggest it might have almost double the risk of hospitalization than the alpha variant.

It seems to affect younger people more often. In the United Kingdom, studies showed that children and adults under 50 were 2.5 times more likely to become infected.

Covid-19 hospitalizations and deaths are increasing. The average number of new Covid-19 cases each day the past week was 32,278. (July 19, 2021) That’s a 66% jump from the average daily rate the previous week, and 145% higher than the rate from two weeks ago.
