Just when it seems like we’ve contained the pandemic, it comes back with a roundhouse kick to our groins.
The Delta variant continues to spread across the U.S. and around the world. Modeling shows that it now accounts for more than 90 percent of new infections, ccording to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
No wonder. The CDC estimates that Delta can be as infectious as chickenpox and only slightly less contagious than measles, which is considered one of the most transmissible viruses.
“The delta variant is showing every day its willingness to outsmart us and to be an opportunist in areas where we have not shown a fortified response against it,” CDC Director Rochelle Walensky Walensky said in July.
All of this gave rise to a new meme, called “My Fall plans Vs. the Delta variant” – a painful but relatable and funny take on the ambitious new strain.
