The hospitalization rate is doubled. That would likely mean a higher death rate. And it's resistant to the antibody cocktail therapy. And now there is a Delta plus variant found in India. Time will tell what this will mean.

Scotland researchers discussed in a recently published study (Lancet, one of the most prestigious medical journals) that the risk of hospital admission was approximately double in Covid patients with the Delta variant, compared Alpha strain.

I could be wrong but I have read that not all virus tests look for all strains.

Here in Portugal the Delta variant is the most common now, which has turned the country into a kind of pariah within the EU. I can understand, though. Everyone is scared of a new wave.
There are cases of fully vaccinated patients in our hospitals...
