The CDC should have 18 months worth of extensive data at this point but we hear nothing but contradictory information from them .
They suck.
It is not so hard to imagine why much of America does not trust much of what they tell us.

This tends to be the problem when governance is largely entrusted to an enormous cadre of corrupt, self-interested, unaccountable bureaucrats.

Politics aside, all I know is that there's an unambiguous signal regarding what's going on in the county I live in (Delta was confirmed here in early July):
It goes on to define who's eligible. Basically be less then 10 days into symptoms and be in the high risk group which is probably half the US.
It is already being done in select cases using approved monoclonals.
Yours is still in research.
They finally gave approval for monoclonal by injection instead of IV drip. But even then treating mass populations would not be simple or easy or cheap or timely.
We will see a tall wave in October if we don’t act now. It will stress the hospitals. Only about half the population is vaccinated. That leaves a possibility of over 160 million people to get very sick this fall.
I'm not so sure it will stress the hospitals if, as the UK reported cited by the CDC says, that only 1% of those infected were hospitalized.
The CDC has said that the Delta variant COVID-19 cases are "typically mild or asymptomatic."
Florida has an aged population....retirement heaven.
The majority of those folks got vaccinated in January.
By now the vaccine immunity has waned and they are catching it.
Just need that booster to bring up that immunity back to 90%+
There's more to this than just a number.
Demographic breakdown is a factor as well.
The average age of people hospitalized in Florida has decreased dramatically since the wave last summer and those who have gotten sick are not necessarily dealing with comorbidities.
CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCSC) - Sen. Lindsey Graham says he has tested positive for COVID-19. On Monday afternoon, Graham said he was informed by the House physician that he tested positive for the virus even after being vaccinated.
According to Graham, he started having flu-like symptoms on Saturday night and went to the doctor Monday morning.

They are a political body first.
Aways keep that in mind.

Details my friend..that article says "deadly breakthrough case" meaning they didn't die.
So 99.99% of those breakthrough cases in the hospital haven't died. Well we know that already.
The CDC is not tracking all breakthrough cases, just those hospitalized.
So that article is either MISinformation or DISinformation but for sure not true.
