As COVID-19 Delta variant cases multiply in Mississippi, state health officials said Tuesday they anticipate an increase in coronavirus cases and related deaths if more residents do not get vaccinated.
Federal health officials have warned of the Delta variant s high transmissibility rate along with its greater hospitalization risk. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention listed the Delta variant under its variants of concern on June 15. Variants with this designation are more easily spread, can cause serious illness and are more resistant to monoclonal antibody treatments used in certain COVID 19-positive patients to lessen the chance of severe outcomes.
