Covid-19 Protection Recommendations
According to Yale Medicine, a vital concern at the moment is the Delta Variant, a highly contagious SARS-CoV-2 virus strain, first identified in India in December. It then swept rapidly through that country and Great Britain as well. The first Delta Variant case in the United States was diagnosed in March, and it is now the dominant strain in the U.S.
Inci Yildirim, MD, Ph.D., a Yale Medicine pediatric infectious diseases specialist and a vaccinologist, isn’t surprised by what’s happening. “All viruses evolve over time and undergo changes as they spread and replicate,” she says.
Yale Medicine provides an excellent resource: ‘5 Things To Know About the Delta Variant.’ It’s vital you take the time to read it and stay informed.
