UK Minister Says Delta Variant 40 Percent More Transmissible

The Delta variant of the coronavirus is estimated to be 40 percent more transmissible than the Alpha variant that caused the previous wave of infections in the United Kingdom, Britain’s health minister has said. People who have received two doses of a coronavirus vaccine should be equally protected against either variant, he added. The Delta variant, which was first detected in India, is now the dominant strain in the UK, according to Public Health England figures.
