Masks Again? Delta Variant’s Spread Prompts Reconsideration of Precautions.

Masks Again? Delta Variant’s Spread Prompts Reconsideration of Precautions.: Roughly half of Los Angeles County residents are fully vaccinated, and about 60 percent have had at least one dose. While the number of positive tests is still below 1 percent in the county, the rate has been inching up, Dr. Ferrer added, and there has been a rise in the number of reinfections among residents who were infected before and did not get vaccinated.

Those reinfections are especially demoralizing. I spoke with one person (small sample size!) who caught it twice, and the second time was much, much worse.
