As college football stadiums across the nation fill up with cheering fans and limited masking, a Raleigh article asks the experts about virus spread. David Wohl, MD, professor of medicine in the division of infectious diseases responded.

“Delta is a game-changer (pun intended). This variant is hyper-infectious and hyper-dangerous. That means the things that worked to protect us from previous variants may not be sufficient to protect against delta.

“So, I would not go to a crowded event like a game where it might be hard for me to keep a healthy distance from others in the stands or aisles or bathroom. It’s just too many people in too close a space for comfort.”
