Agree with Mayor Brown. Where the delta variant will affect people is no mystery, as it will be the same areas that were affected with B.1.1.7.
Important to note that one dose of vaccine still offers significant protection--this 33% figure does not tell the whole story. 1/

There will undoubtedly be more cases because of the delta, but let's remember we are in an entirely different situation compared to even 3 months ago. One vaccine dose still provides protection. A 4th wave will look much less severe most notably because... 2/
...hospitalizations will be significantly less. I sound like a broken record on this, but the objective of restricting the community is to prevent overwhelming of hospitals. With hospitalizations being markedly reduced with vaccination.... 3/
...the threat of lockdown does NOT loom with rises in cases. In the post-vaccine era hospitals will do what they've always done: take care of people who fall ill, and the community continues to function around it. 4/
Vaccines have completely changed the face of the pandemic, including here in Ontario. Cases are now decoupling from hospitalization, and the virus has been "defanged". This is all thanks to vaccination. 5/
And to re-iterate what I said above (and at the same time creating a never ending programming loop that Alan Turing would laugh at)
