The United States has been facing a COVID-19 surge as the more contagious delta variant continues to spread.
More than 716,000 Americans have died from COVID-19 while over 4.8 million people have died from the disease worldwide, according to real-time data compiled by the Center for Systems Science and Engineering at Johns Hopkins University.
Just 66% of Americans ages 12 and up are fully vaccinated against COVID-19, according to data from the CDC.
Now that the >65 year old age group has reached a 95% vaccination rate, COVID-19 has moved to thinning the 35 to 54 year old unvaccinated herd.

Which vaccine did they receive?
We're just beginning to get the results of mass-vaccination results with AZ. It looks like at 20 weeks after vaccination with AZ, the incidence of breakthrough infection is around 50%. The good news is that hospitalizations were reduced by 70% and deaths were reduced by 79%....The greater number of over 60s, would have received AZ in the earlier months of the roll-out.
I started noticing that in the last two days of shopping there are fewer people wearing masks now. Without actually counting, I would guess about 50%in stores and malls.
Different here. I see about 95% compliance with wearing masks in indoor retail areas. But hand sanitising has dropped significantly. From what I see, only about 1 in 10 are sanitising hands as they enter or leave outlets. Several months ago, just about everybody was doing both.

Covid-19 would be a "seasonal infection" tied to low temperatures and hunidity.
