A reality check on the Delta variant
You may have seen the very scary headlines this weekend about the COVID-19 Delta variant. One of those was out of Florida, which reported its highest number of new COVID cases since the pandemic began. And last Wednesday, Texas reported more than 10,000 new COVID cases, its highest total for a single day since February.
