If you read through European virus experts....they all say it’s easier to pass around, but the level (intensity) of the disease probably doesn’t match up to first original version.

I'm no expert, but I think that's standard and expected. Virus mutations typically weaken the disease. And by becoming more contagious but less fatal, we get herd immunity more easily. Hopefully, this Delta Variant will spread like wildfire, give everyone a mild flu-like illness for a few days, and grant massive levels of immunity throughout society. Sounds like great news.

No they always weaken it.

I agree with you!
....I know 7 who were unvaccinated ...( as this is anecdotal, 4 for sure, possibly all 7) in a small church in our community recently contracted Covid......2 more contracted it even after their first ( but had not received their 2nd) jab

All are recuperating nicely although one described it as an awful flu with spiking fever for 2 days......2 others are in the hospital

This church had taken all precautions and was just fully opening again when this happened
