Multiple variants of the virus that causes COVID-19 have been documented, including a highly transmittable form of COVID-19 known as the delta variant. The delta variant, which was first seen in December 2020 in India, is spreading globally. It is more contagious than the previous strains of COVID-19 that have been detected in the U.S.

The delta variant is concerning because it's more highly transmissible, but the good news is that the COVID-19 vaccine is still highly protective against getting infected or ending up in a hospital or dying from the infection. Breakthrough infection is a rare event where someone who is fully vaccinated still ends up getting infected with COVID-19.

A fourth COVID-19 surge is blanketing the U.S., and the delta variant is the culprit. "Where did this delta variant come from? It came from unvaccinated people getting infected in large numbers allowing the virus to continue mutating," says Dr. Gregory Poland, an infectious diseases expert and head of Mayo Clinic's Vaccine Research Group.. In the past, a person with COVID-19 might infect two

SARS-CoV-2 is the original coronavirus that mushroomed out of Wuhan, China last year and led to the COVID-19 pandemic. Variants quickly emerged, including Alpha, which was first identified in the U.K. Alpha is estimated to be 50% more contagious than SARS-CoV-2. Delta is estimated to be 50% to 60% more contagious than Alpha.

What are Delta variant symptoms? People infected with the Delta variant of the COVID-19 virus, show the same symptoms as people infected with other versions of the virus. Therefore, presently, the Delta variant can only be identified through specialized laboratory tests ("genomic sequencing") and NOT by observing a patient's symptoms.
