Collins: The Un-Vaxxed Are “Sitting Ducks” For Delta

The Insider reports:

National Institutes of Health Director, Dr. Francis Collins, says unvaccinated people are “sitting ducks” as the highly transmissible Delta variant continues to spread in areas across the US. “Fox News Sunday” anchor Chris Wallace asked Collins about how many new COVID-19 cases we can expect to see on a daily basis as the surge continues.

“I will be surprised if we don’t cross 200,000 cases a day in the next couple of weeks,” Collins said. “That’s heartbreaking considering we never thought we would never be back in that space again. But here we are with Delta, which is so contagious, and this heartbreaking situation where 90 million people are still unvaccinated who are sitting ducks.”
