vaccinated individuals. effectively what they saw is what dr. fauci said, high levels in the nasalbsequently infected, on par with the level of virus in someone who wasn't vaccinated. but nasal swabs, while it is suggestive of someone's ability to spread the virus, it doesn't prove they're able to spread the virus. so it is not a perfect correlet. you want to measure the virus in the airwaves because you spread this virus through aerosols. and we have other evidence that came out, people who are vaccinated, even if their viral titers are very high, even if they're asymptomatic, the viral titers fall manage more quickly than those unvaccinated. so after a day or two days, they are much less likely to spread the virus. so initially someone who is vaccinated may have the same level to spread the virus, on par with someone who is unvaccinatedbut eir ability to ly diminishes more quickly. therefore out in the community, if you were measuring their ability to transmit the virus, you would probably see on the whole they're less likely to be contagious. >> dickerson: one of the challenges

news is his people that have been vaccinated and get infected as a breakthrough as you call it, that infection with delta, that they have a level of virus in their nasal fare next that is equivalent to an under vaccinated person. we know now that a person who's vaccinated, if you get infected but it does occur even if you're without symptoms or if you have moderate or slate symptoms. you are capable of transmitting it to someone else. so the delta variant, even though the person that gets infected, who is vaccinated, is very unlikely to get a severe outcome. not impossible, but unlikely that person can still spread. it that is the reason for the modification of the masking guidelines, because you're dealing with two issues, preventing you from getting seriously ill, but also the possibility that you might spread it. it's a nasty virus rachel, that's the reason why we have to take it very seriously. one of the best ways, to do that, is to get as many people vaccinated as quickly as we possibly can. that is the solution to this problem, and when you see that kind of surges that you put up on the screen, it's so obvious that we have 93 million people in

nasal pharynx of unvaccinated people who get infected. that is very different from the alpha variant. in the alpha variant, the level of virus was extremely low in the vaccinatedeople compared to the unvaccinated people. not so with delta. so we know that vaccinated people who get breakthrough infections can spread the virus to other people. >> dickerson: sticking on that point, we have always known that it was not 100% affective when you're vaccinated. so among the breakthrough cases that we always knew would happen, in every breakthrough instance, is it true that the ability to spread is high? or is it a smaller subset of the breakthrough cases in which this discovery was made about the ability to spread? >> doctor: well, the phenomenon of the ability to spread is clear, we're seeing that very, very clearly in a number of situations. when you look at the data we have gotten from a single study so far -- and other studies are coming out -- you have a availability, but the mean or average level of virus in the nasal pharynx is really quite similar, almost identical on an average. so you would think, obviously, when you have biological variability, you will hav

variant to transmit and to replicate, we find now that the level of virus in the nasal is extremely high, and even a vaccinatednsmitting the virus to someone who's uninfected. so for that reason the cdc changed guidelines in two ways, saying if you are vaccinated, if you are in an indoor public setting where you have a situation where you're in a zone, which is most of the united states, that is either a high or substantial degree of transmission, you should still wear a mask. and the same thing goes for being in school. you have a situation where the best way to protect children is anyone that can be vaccinated surround the kids with people who are vaccinated. teachers, personnel in the school, whomever. but in addition to that, you should have everyone be wearing a mask. we know how that can be uncomfortable. but you'd rather have an uncomfortable situation with a well child than temporarily comfortable and a child in the icu. that's what we want to avoid. >> dr. fauci, do you agree with randy winegarden, the head of the largest teachers' union in the country who came out and said yes, teachers should be vac

some nasal congestion, maybe a little bit of a cough, maybe a low-grade fever. if that is happening to you and you're fully vaccinated, that's a good reason to get a test and see if you might be carrying the virus and should isolate yourself so you're not spreading it to other people. again, the vaccinations to work. they don't prevent mild symptoms as senator lindsey graham just described in his own case this morning. but it is still so critical to get the vaccination because otherwise you're likelihood of hospitalization or even death is substantial as you've heard from the stories that are being told all over the place today. by the way, i'm glad you all are telling some of these personal stories. statistics, you know, sometimes they roll off people. when you hear about anthony garcia like you talked about ten minutes ago or michael, the father of five in las vegas whose final text to his wife was i should have gotten the damn vaccine. that's something to notice. these are real people who have lost their lives because of a decision to hold off on something we know is safe and effective. don't hold off, america. >>
