Fox News
Former White House coronavirus task force member Adm. Brett Giroir urged Americans to get vaccinated, but added that the messaging from both the Biden administration and its CDC Director Rochelle Walensky has been "rough" in that regard.
Giroir, who served under President Donald Trump, said that no matter how politicized or controversial the CDC's recommendations and messaging on virus mitigation appear, as a medical doctor he strongly advised all Americans to get the shot to prevent contagion from new variants. Despite the CDC's messaging stumbles, Giroir reiterated that most unvaccinated Americans will at some point contract the highly contagious Delta variant. "I think the data you saw today just underscores what I said: The Delta variant is extremely contagious – about like chickenpox, on average infecting nine people instead of two to three people with the old variant," he told "The Story."More Related News
