It now seems Delta has more adverse efforts in the younger cohort than earlier variants. Pity in earlier days we didn't have a huge three day concerts around the country for thousands to get infected at big parties. They likely would have intermixed disease recovery as handover recovery but then would have acquired immunity from future variants and no longer possible asymptomatic spreaders. This would be Great Barrington at work with the thesis of removing the socially active from the spreader population.
Delta is believed to have a R-naught of 5. (At my age I never encounter 5 people near each other.) With that high R0, we expect rapid growth perhaps moderated by the vaccinated, at the moment. But if the vaccinated only get a milder version they are likely better off than getting a booster. Eventually no matter what, we achieve a degree of immunity to severe variants, as we have through human history. Pity we had to suffer though so many delays caused by shutdowns and pity we couldn't take advantage of therapeutics.

Excellent article. Mild typo in HCL you meant HCQ.
