For now, the CDC says the delta variant accounts for 93 percent of all infections

The delta variant accounts for at least 93 percent of all sequenced coronavirus in the U.S., according to estimates from the CDC.

For the two-week period ending July 31, all the different lineages of the delta variant made up about 93 percent of cases that were sequenced.

In some parts of the country with low vaccination rates, especially the Midwest, the percentages are even higher.

Vaccination rates have been uneven across states, and only about half of all eligible people nationwide are fully vaccinated.

Two weeks ago, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky said the delta variant was responsible for 83 percent of all sequenced COVID-19 cases.

Health officials have described the latest stage of the coronavirus as a “pandemic of the unvaccinated” while emphasizing that those who have had their shots are relatively safe.
