NIH Director Says He Gets ‘Nasty E-Mails’ from the Vaccinated: We Didn’t Flip-Flop on Masks, We Have New Data

‘It’s like we have to write the playbook over again for delta because it’s behaving differently’

EXCERPT:

COLLINS: "Yeah, I get some pretty nasty e-mails right now from some of those folks. You know, I wish that that was not where we were. But hey, you know, let’s all kind of control our emotions here and look at the data. What is the data saying, Neil? It says that people who are vaccinated, like I am, are still capable of getting the virus in their nose and turns out actually the virus can get to pretty high levels if it’s Delta because it’s really good. You may not even know that you have it at that point but you could be at that point spreading it to others who are unprotected, like kids under 12 or like immunocompromised people or like other unvaccinated.”
