COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (KMTV) - Dr. David Quimby with CHI Health says the Delta strain is growing exponentially in the Hawkeye State.
"What we have found is when the states are doing their analysis on the variant testing afterward, is that our Delta proportion is increasing over time," Quimby said.
Dr. Jeffrey Sartin, a physician with Methodist Jennie Edmundson Hospital, says this epidemic is only "over" for the people who have been vaccinated. For those who haven't gotten it, there's still significant risk.
