Dr. Vincent Hsu, an epidemiologist and executive director of infection prevention at AdventHealth, said the increase in COVID-19 hospitalizations is a result of the highly contagious Delta variant. The Delta strain, which mutated from the original COVID-19 virus and is now the dominant variant both in Florida and nationwide, is also infecting fully vaccinated people, according to Hsu, though typically the symptoms aren t enough to be admitted to the hospital. As of July 8, 42% of Florida’s population has not been vaccinated against the virus, according to the Florida Department of Health’s most recent update.  The same trends are occurring nationwide, causing some hospitals to begin reinstating restrictions, such as mask-wearing and limiting visitors for patients, and, in more extreme cases, suspending or delaying elective surgeries.
