The Delta variant of the virus that causes COVID-19 is surging in the United States. New data show Delta is different than past versions of the virus; it is much more contagious. While rare, some vaccinated people can get Delta in a breakthrough infection and may be contagious.

Unvaccinated people: get vaccinated and wear a mask until you do.

Everyone in areas of substantial or high transmission should wear a mask, even if they are vaccinated.

WHO Philippines calls for accelerated efforts by local government units (LGUs) to vaccinate all senior citizens as soon as possible.

To date, only about 25% of this vulnerable group have been fully vaccinated, leaving 6.4 million of the elderly at increased risk of severe illness and death.

The risk is even more immediate with the possible surge in COVID-19 cases following the confirmation of the circulation of the more transmissible Delta variant.

If you are fully vaccinated, your risk of infection is lower, but some people can still spread the Delta variant. When “breakthrough cases” of COVID-19 do occur in vaccinated people, nearly all are avoiding serious illness, hospitalization, or death.
