is thanks largely to unvaccinated cases. >> this morning abc 7 news reporter amy hollyfield joining us live in it walnut creek with advice from health experts amid this new mask guidance from the cdc. amy. >> reporter: delta variant and we just aren't doing enough to stop it to slow it down. so now that's why you're hearing talks about mask mandates to try to get those case numbers back down. the recommendation from the federal government is now that everyone wear masks indoors and that includes people who are vaccinated. and as the delta variant gains strength, the concern is what could happen next. >> every time another person gets infected it gives the virus an opportunity to mutate again. we don't know what it could do in the future. we want to get that under control as quickly as possible.

>> reporter: governor gavin newsom was asked if a mask mandate was coming back. at this time the focus is on vaccinations. saying if people would get vaccinated we would not need to be thinking about a mask mandate. so this mask announcement from the federal government is a recommendation. it is not a mandate. live in walnut creek, amy hollyfield, abc 7 news. >> thank you. so what is the cdc director saying about the decision to reverse course on mask guidance? jobina at the life desk with what she revealed this morning. >> the bottom line is the delta variant is spreading fast. mostly among the unvaccinated. there's new data showing fully vaccinated people can spread the variant. the cdc is urging you to put masks back on indoors. and recommending students and teachers do the same at school. right now more than 63% of counties across the u.s. are seeing covid cases spreading rapidly. cdc director dr. rochelle

walensky was on gma. >> 90 to 95% is the efficacy of these vaccines. what we hadn't seen in the clinical trials was how well they worked in preventing transmission. they worked quite well in preventing transmission with alpha and what we're seeing now is they're working less well in preventing transmission with delta. >> 100 million americans eligible for the vaccine have still not gotten the shot and another headline this morning, phaser is making the case for a booster shot for its vaccine releasing data showing a third dose can increase your protection. if your kids are headed to a california state university campus this fall, they have to be vaccinated. the csu chancellor called the new surge of infections alarming and he's not waiting for full fda approval of the vaccines to mandate that students have to be vaccinated. you have until september 30th
