solution, you need to make sure you have good ventilation and people washing their hands and getting tested, teachers getting vaccinated as well but what is happening is the new delta variant replicates more easily and is more contagious, you can have 1000 times more viral particles so kids can pick it up even if they don t have severe symptoms they can spread it to another person and when it spreads is when the virus mutates and that s when we get more variants like delta and lambda and the uk variant so that is something to keep in mind. the american academy of the atarax is concerned about the rest of the schools resulting in mask quarantine and kids will be our school for 2 weeks or 3 weeks. you mentioned recommended. is that based on risk thresholds at home the kids are carriers and not necessarily targets themselves? is in that decision a parent can make based on information they have? that s what they re doing in florida, governor desantis is giving that option to the
are rising expect delta variant, they should have been worried about the lambda variant that apparently is rampant in latin america, and that will be coming across the border soon too. pete: you know, it s not radical to give people a choice. and the word you used, will, the operative word is balance. what joe biden and the democrats have decided to do is bow in every way to dr. fauci and the health bureaucrats. whatever they sagos. jen psaki, my kid walks around in a mask at night and loves it. that s their view. whereas ron desantis says there s freedom at play, there s personal choice at play, there s common sense at play, i m going to balance those things. that s not easy to do. it s a copout. it s not easy to balance, and he s done that. will: yeah. by the way, somehow it s denial that the virus exists. quite honestly, their point s become comedic. ashley: we cowant to get to this. this is about a rhode island mom
the same time last year and that s why it s so important to get vaccinated, to mask up because of the high-contagious ability of the virus to spread easily from person to person. if you pick up the delta variant, you carry a thousand times the viral load in your nose and you could spread it more readily to other people. that s why it s so important to wear your mask, to get your vaccine and to take precautions when you re in crowded areas because it s when the virus spreads, mutates and replicates and that s when we see more variants emerge that eventually one day might evade the vaccine. right now our vaccines fortunately still work great. they are little bit weaker than we like when it comes to delta because we are seeing more breakthrough infections but the more we get americans vaccinated the better we can get a handle and contain this current outbreak. we did get hit a good milestone, 50% of americans fully vaccinated but we need to ramp
variant. but we have to remember every variant is going to react differently. we have a beta variant, gamma variant, i heard about eppslen variant in california. we re not 100% sure where they fit against the vaccinas the beta variant is the most immune evading. but even then the vaccines protect against hospitalizations and death. we will see new variants emerge particularly if we allow the virus to spread. every time the virus spreads from one person to another it replicates and mutates. we will see other variants. we need to stay ahead of this. and the best way to do that is to vaccinate everybody as quickly as possible what needs what s your sense of how this unfolds? i know that s a hard question to ask. but we re 18 months into this and it looked like things were getting better. can we get a handle on this quickly or is there no solution other than some people masking up and more people getting
weekend, this happens every summer, most summers. there were events and parties and an outbreak of covid. 469 people contracted the virus. nearly three-quarters were fully vaccinated. now, provincetown is a liberal place. it has one of the highest vaccination rates in the country. as a result, the rate in the provincetown outbreak was pin schedule. only five were hospitalized. four fully vaccinated. no one died. in other words, the vaccine did their job. to stress this whole thing, the led line is a happy stare about effectiveness put to an complut stress test. that is broadly in line what we have been hearing about delta variant, it s highly transmissible and even among the vaccinated but the vaccine is
