    • Science

This episode discusses six MMWR COVID-19 reports. The first three highlight how easily Delta can spread among people who are unvaccinated and the next two describe how COVID-19 rates remain low when vaccination coverage is high and prevention measures are followed. The last report shows that adults with disabilities were far more likely than adults without disabilities to report serious mental health concerns and substance use during the COVID-19 pandemic.
