What impact does it have on unvaccinated people?Â
Recent data suggests the new variant can easily lead to more severe illnesses than other known variants, especially when referring to unvaccinated people.
Dr. Jeremy Faust, a physician at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and also an instructor at Harvard Medical School said, that the Delta variant is actually an uncomfortable development since it makes it much worse for those who have virtually no protection against the virus.
And although the vaccines were already on the market when the new variant came upon us, it doesn’t mean they don’t offer protection against the Delta variant.
