This Update: There are 101,925 people hospitalized with Covid-19 in the U.S. right now. The U.S. is now averaging 1,499 new Covid-19 deaths each day, according to The Johns Hopkins University. Almost all of them are not vaccinated. Bottom line: Get A Shot!

Bottom line
Delta variant is a problem
Vaccines prevent vast majority of infections, transmission
And nearly all hospitalizations, deaths
