What a day this has been. that one, not two, but three united states senators announced they have just contracted repubr of mississippi, independent senator angus king of maine, and democratic senator john hickenlooper of colorado. all announced today that they have tested positive. all three of these men, who were fully vaccinated, which just put a spotlight on how very very contagious the delta variants of this virus is. the delta variant makes up an exclusive variant in our country now. it also underscores the administration s decision to recommend that fully vaccinated americans, should get booster shots, starting next month. all three senators got infected, even though they were vaccinated. statistically speaking all three are likely to be okay, because they were vaccinated.
