We still have 733 dead. And then, while we are really trying to upgrade vaccination, we have this complex message that we still have hot spots in this country. " Michigan, for example, sees an increase in cases. "And we will examine the issue of outdoor masking, but it is also in the context that we still have people who die from Covid."
Do not let the hesitation stop you

Why the immunity of the flock is crucial
Dr. Walensky also addressed the importance of his immunity. "You know that the value of the immunity of the flock is very dependent on the transmission of the virus and these variants that could actually be a moving target," she explained. "Here's what I know. I know that the more people are vaccinated, the more people we have vaccinated, the less the transmission will occur."

"This is a very important issue that we are following and many studies are now beginning to emerge that give us important data," she revealed. "So we know that the vaccine in real world studies is somewhere between 85, 95% effective. And are some of the questions, does it mean that you are not sick or that you do not get not the virus? " She then mentioned theWeekly Morbidity and Mortality Report published a month ago. "We really find that people do not get the virus at all. So what about these people who are pierced, who get the virus and more and more data suggest that about one-third of them? " She continued. "Even if they get the virus, they are completely asymptomatic and many of them have such a low virus that they can not transmit to others. Now we still need more data in this area, but we are getting more and more data suggests that even these revolutionary infections can be less symptomatic and less likely to transmit. "
Why masks are still important
When asked why we still have to wear masks, Dr. Walensky pointed out that no vaccine is perfect. "In the end, it will be a risk issue, but what I can say is that an effective 95% vaccine is extraordinarily effective.
