Rochelle Walensky, the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, announced Wednesday that the highly contagious COVID-19 Delta variant now makes up about 83 percent of all new infections in the U.S.
She called the jump from about 50 percent during the week of 3 July significant but expected. She pointed out that there has been a 48 percent jump in deaths across the U.S., with 239 individuals dying over the past week, according to the Financial Times.
TRENDPOST: The Trends Journal has warned that the Delta variant is going to lead to new lockdowns just in time for the fall. (See: “DELTA VARIANT=GLOBAL HYSTERIA.”) To put the 329 deaths into perspective, exactly 7 months ago today, on 27 January, 4,102 Americans reportedly died of the virus. Yet, these hard facts are dismissed by the mainstream Presstitutes and politicians.
Fear for Sale
The New York Times reported that hospitalizations are trending upward in 45 states, but the level is far below its previous highs. Health officials in the U.S. say areas with a very low vaccination rate are suffering from greater numbers of infections. One hospital in Springfield, Missouri, had a brief shortage of ventilators due to the sudden increase of patients.
“I think any community that has low vaccination rates and has not experienced this [high increase of new patients] yet better get ready,” Erik Frederick, the chief administrative officer at Mercy Hospital Springfield, told The Times. “Because what we are seeing with this Delta variant, it’s not an ‘if,’ it’s a ‘when.’”
The delta variant has slightly different symptoms compared to the original virus, doctors said. You may not get the loss of taste and smell. The Delta variant could cause issues like a cough, shortness of breath, a fever, body aches, and congestion. And, barely reported is the fact that the Delta variant is less lethal than COVID 19.
TREND FORECAST: Over 56 percent of Americans 12 and up in the U.S. have taken both jabs, according to the CDC… while among two-thirds of the counties, fewer than 40 percent of the population have been vaccinated.
Thus, as evidenced with only 13 percent of Australians vaccinated, there, as with the much of the world, more COVID mandates and restrictions are being imposed not because death rates are going up—in fact as we have proven, they are a fraction of what they were this past January—but because there is a global push to get the “herd” as fully vaccinated as possible.
