Do unvaccinated people that are infected with the new variant show higher loads than we saw with other variants?
As Kristen Bjorkman, COVID-19 scientific director for the BioFrontiers Institute at CU Boulder and Matthew McQueen, professor of integrative physiology claim, when it comes to COVID-19, higher viral loads will lead to a higher risk of transmitting the disease.
Research is showing that the unvaccinated peers infected with the delta strain have a 1,000-fold higher viral load than the first strain of SARS-CoV-2, which now holds the minority of cases in the U.S.
They came to the conclusion that the new delta variant seems to make about a five-to 20-fold higher viral load than alpha, a variant of the virus that was first identified in the United Kingdom.
So, what about the unvaccinated?…..
