A total of 346 cases, about 74 percent, occurred in fully vaccinated people, according to the CDC. The test identified the delta variant in 90 percent of the samples out of 133 patients. The cycle threshold values were similar in samples from patients who had been treated, according to the study. were fully vaccinated and those who were not already infected with Kovid.
CDC director Rochelle Valensky said the study showed that Delta infection resulted in equally high SARS-CoV-2 viral loads in vaccinated and unvaccinated people. Rising cases of high viral load transmission raise concerns that people infected with Delta, unlike other variants, may transmit the virus. Valensky said the research was an important finding for the CDC.

The CDC once again informed about its masking recommendation on Tuesday. Urged vaccinated Americans to resume wearing masks in public indoor spaces, in schools and in COVID-19 hot spots across the country.
