“If you are not vaccinated and if you have not had COVID before, you’re going to get the delta variant,” Giroir told CNN’s Chris Cuomo.

“On average, one person will transmit this to nine people, unlike the original virus, which got transmitted to two or three,” he explained…

“Natural immunity is real and it provides protection,” he acknowledged. “But there is more and more accumulated evidence that that immunity wanes and it’s not so good against delta.”
