New study on delta variant reveals importance of receiving both vaccine shots, highlights challenges posed by mutations washingtonpost.com/health/delta-v…
A peer-reviewed report from scientists in France, published Thursday in the journal Nature, found that the delta variant has mutations that allow it to evade some of the neutralizing antibodies produced by vaccines or by a natural infection. washingtonpost.com/health/delta-v…
But the experiments found that fully vaccinated people — with the recommended regimen of two shots of the Pfizer-BioNTech or AstraZeneca vaccine — should retain significant protection against the delta variant. washingtonpost.com/health/delta-v…
The bottom line is that, in a time when the delta variant is rapidly gaining traction, full vaccination offers a much better firewall against infection than partial vaccination. washingtonpost.com/health/delta-v…
