If you go to Dr. Rasmussen's Twitter thread you'll find her insightful commentary on the study. In plain English. We hear often about how delta is more transmissible, but we don't hear much about why that's the case or how that impacts exposure risk. A new study by Li and colleagues is out on Virological that provides some insight:https://t.co/EiwAJmrgcI — Dr. Angela Rasmussen (@angie_rasmussen) July 15, 2021 In short: -Delta may be more transmissible because there's more of it, more quickly after exposure -Vaccines still work against delta -Taking other precautions (masks, distancing, limit crowds, stay outdoors, ventilation, hand washing, disinfection, etc) will further reduce risk. — Dr. Angela Rasmussen (@angie_rasmussen) July 15, 2021 This free site is ad-supported.
