(WJW) – The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s updated guidance for preventing the spread of the coronavirus recommends all people wear masks in public indoor settings in highly transmissible areas, even those who have been vaccinated.
The CDC cited the surge of the highly contagious delta variant of coronavirus. Research suggests that vaccinated people who get infected with the delta variant can spread it to others, even if the vaccinated don’t get seriously ill.
According to health experts, it spreads more easily because of mutations that make it better at latching onto cells in our bodies.
There have been a very low number of breakthrough cases among vaccinated people. For those who are vaccinated who do get it, the early data shows they become less sick or asymptomatic.
U.S. health officials Wednesday announced plans to dispense COVID-19 booster shots to all Americans to shore up their protection amid the surging delta variant and signs that the vaccines’ effectiveness is slipping.
