We may need to relook at the whole issue about wearing masks. Those are all questions that what we do know is that if we wear a mask, we're protecting ourselves and we're protecting others, and so that is one thing that we can control and it's one thing that can keep us opened up.
What do you really need to know about the Delta variant and mask mandates? Patty Olinger, an infectious disease expert and executive director of the Global Biorisk Advisory Council, dives into this hot topic on 'American Medicine Today'. With the Delta variant spreading rapidly, Olinger explains how viruses mutate and why this particular variant is so concerning. She highlights that even vaccinated individuals can still get infected and potentially spread the virus, making mask-wearing crucial to protect ourselves and others.
Olinger also touches on the challenges of infectious disease research and the potential need for booster shots as the virus evolves. She emphasizes understanding your personal risk, especially if you or your loved ones have underlying health conditions. The episode wraps up with a story of recovery, reminding us all of the importance of hope and perseverance during these challenging times.
