Topic	How concerned are you about the Delta Variant?
LordoftheMorons 07/19/21 8:31:55 PM #14:	Decently concerned; I'm going to continue working from home/not doing indoor stuff/wearing a mask to the store etc for the immediate future (probably would have done otherwise if cases had continued to fall). It looks like Pfizer/Moderna are probably around 80something% effective against delta infection vs 95% for the original strain, and even if I'm still well protected against hospitalization/death I would really like to not get sick and/or infect other people. Also if delta has an R_0 of around 6 and (current) vaccines are only ~85% effective against it you need basically everybody vaccinated for herd immunity which is... clearly not happening, so that's really not great. --- Congrats to azuarc, GotD2 Guru champ! <cite>LordoftheMorons posted [p:956260028] in How concer...
