When is the Delta variant supposed to hit?

Confirmed by testing??

Well, not really. The answer is (if you are a teacher) a week before the school is supposed to start, or a week before I am supposed to show up for work in person, so around a week or two before Labor Day for most.


God no, please no.

From where did you contract it 3 times? All confirmed?

Beware, people. this is the fearmongering pp of the thread that was taken down. None that she posts is true, she wants to mask everyone now (and forever) and lock us all up if "needed" soon. Infection is not quite possible for most of us here, there are mostly super mild cases in those vaccinated.
Plus Moderna just published their results against the Delta variant and it was very effective.

Very curious what thread or post you are referring to was taken down? I am not the PP you quote, but I am equally shrill, and it wouldn't surprise me if you believed us to be one and the same. I don't see anything I posted that was taken down.

It was about Isreal masking where you or the other pp were insulting everyone and ordering people to help the "poor" by masking and possibly locking down when needed.
If you recognize that you are "equally shrill" is it maybe not the time for you to start wondering what is causing your issues and if you have kids just how much harm are you causing to your children?


It sounds like you may need to be medicated, or perhaps a 5150 hold. If you need access to resources, or if there is some organization we can donate to that assists people such as yourself, please let us know.

There will be a large increase of cases through the summer.

We can't tell yet how much that will translate into increases in hospitalizations, deaths, or long-covid, in the various populations such as vacc'ed high-risk seniors, unvacc'ed YOLO young adults, unvacc'ed 'too hot for masks' children, vacc'ed 'time to move on' healthy adults.

We can't tell whether delta itself is more severe, or just vastly more transmissible. There no longer are households of '1 got it, the others didn't' and there are anecdotes of outdoor transmissions (sports in the UK) and fleeting contact transmissions (the mall, in Australia). You can't demand an official report on this stuff, because it's too new. This is what we got.

Hospitalizations increases are behind cases increases by 3+ weeks. Vaccinating half the population has probably changed that timeline, but it has also changed testing practices, even in the symptomatic.

PP here, and no, I did not create the alleged separate thread you reference. So, you are a liar. And you are a dolt: the information on breakthrough cases is a matter of fact, despite it not conforming to your preferred narrative and agenda, and it has lead to various cities/municipalities in the US and elsewhere to strongly encourage mask wearing, even among the vaccinated. Indeed, the WHO, too, is urging vaccinated folks to keep wearing masks. This is not "fear mongering", though you've created a nice strawman that I "want[] to mask everyone now (and forever) and lock [you] all up if "needed" soon." What does that even mean?

Yeah bugger off. You're saying right there that "shrill" = "requires medication". That makes you a misogynous man likely incapable of recognizing righteous alarm, or basically any new information from a woman. YOU need therapy, or more importantly, we need you out of any position of responsibility and decision-making.

So that misogynous dolt has amalgamated at least three posters concerned with the delta variant.

That's not a reading comprehension issue. The '5150 hold' comment could have been the dolt adding to his own statement, or by a delta-concerned poster to the dolt. I take it from your snark it wasn't by the dolt?

To pretend a healthy vaccinated 36 year old is at all in the same risk pool as a 92 year old is nuts.

OK squirrel looking for nuts. No-one is pretending anything about risk pools. Yet, your bar is so low that you dismiss all risk below 'super high'.

Different poster. A healthy 36yo is at low risk of death regardless of a vaccine or not.

It was definitely not by the "dolt." I am the "dolt." I posted nothing past my first "doltish" post. And now this.
