In an era where good news is in short supply, this analysis from Public Health England suggests that both Pfizer & AstraZeneca are highly effective against hospitalization with the Delta variant (after 2 doses):
1. Pfizer: 96%
2. AstraZeneca: 92%

More details of the analysis can be found at this link, with effectiveness of Pfizer & AstraZeneca vs Alpha & Delta variants: bit.ly/3gv0uLX 
Also, have a peek at the chart above & look at the effectiveness of a single dose for hospitalization....not too shabby.
This is very helpful data in support of Canada's 1st dose fast approach.
And now we are well underway for rapid follow up of 2nd doses. 🇨🇦

Last point:
Delta variant is +++ more transmissible.
It will find it's way to unvaccinated people & under-vaccinated communities.
We need to simultaneously...
1. Continue to lower barriers in Canada to vaccination.
2. Support global vaccine equity programs (COVAX).
