ST. PAUL — Minnesota Department of Health officials said Monday, July 26, that the delta variant of the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 is the dominant strain circulating in the state.
The variant can resist some forms of treatments and the vaccine for COVID-19, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and is said to be more transmissible than previous strains of the virus.
