Details of the Delta variant of SARS-CoV2


There has been some false information posted on this forum so I thought that I would post this article by Lara Herrero who is research leader in virology and infectious disease at Griffith University:

 

How contagious is Delta? How long are you infectious? Is it more deadly? A quick guide to the latest science

 

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-09-29/covid-delta-variant-what-the-science-says/100497804 

 

I hope I it helps clear up some misinformation.

I didn't bother to open and read the link. I am sick and tired of all the theories concerning this virus. We all read/see the news from here and overseas and the advice from health experts (real) and we all know what to do. Just get bloody vaccinated. The sooner we do the sooner we will be back to normal. Those that don't know the risks.

 Yes, have to agree, the correct information from medical experts is there for all to read, and its pretty clear.

Sadly, some people refuse to believe it and they will never ever change their opinion no matter how clear the evidence is

Cheers

My thoughts are if you want to help fix this then your better to get the vaccine, however I'm not convince one way or the other about the advice given by any government department about the vaccines available, meaning there does not seem to be much consistency in the information given? I was given my first dose and told to wait the full 12 weeks to get the second dose, this was explained to me that waiting the full 12 week would give the vaccine a better chance to do it's intended job, however if needed I could get it at an earlier date but not recommended.

Then comes the government announcement for everyone to get their vaccines at 6 week intervals? why was I told "it's best to wait the FULL 12 weeks? (I have no known underlying medical conditions) But I do intend waiting the full 12 week and anyone getting the vaccine should ask why only 6 weeks before getting the second dose, just my opinion.

The reason for this change in 6week gap over the 12week gap has been given before, I will not go into it here, but again it has been explained clearly.
The information is there, from health experts/doctors/professors/specialists etc etc
