Fauci says U.S. must vaccinate more people before Delta becomes dominant Covid variant in America

U.S. health officials are scrambling to get more Americans vaccinated to keep the Delta variant, first identified in India, from proliferating across the United States.

The variant has become the dominant strain in the U.K., accounting for an estimated 60% of new cases. It’s now more prevalent than the Alpha strain, formerly called the B.1.1.7 strain, which was first identified in the U.K., and transmission is peaking in people between the ages of 12 and 20, White House chief medical advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci said at a press briefing Tuesday.

In the U.S., the Delta variant accounts for more than 6% of cases scientists have been able to sequence, he said. The actual number is likely higher, as the U.S. is running the genetic sequence on a fraction of cases.

“In the U.K., the Delta variant is rapidly emerging as the dominant variant … It is replacing the B.1.1.7,” Fauci said. “We cannot let that happen in the United States.”

  1. More of the same from Fauci. Nothing he has said in the past has been true. Why believe him now? If this virus is so bad why are flights in and out of the country still being allowed? Why are people from India still allowed to travel to the U.S.? This whole covid thing stinks.

  2. In my eyes Your cancelled fucci!!!twitter fb should cancel your account for speading lies, but we all know you and them are on the same evil team!!!

  3. Get that poison juice shot in as many arms as possible before they throw your gray ass out! Can’t be too soon.
