Those that are unvaccinated have much higher chance of being significantly affected by the Delta variant.The region made up of Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Colorado, Wyoming, and Utah had a rate of 93.4% of Delta variant cases among new COVID cases, according to Fortune’s vaccine tracker.Among this group are some of the states with the lowest vaccination rates, including Wyoming (where 55.2% have had at least one dose) and North Dakota (56.3%). In the South, states such as Louisiana, Alabama, and Mississippi have vaccination rates near 50% while the Delta variant increases. Despite the vaccine not protecting completely against COVID, it still protects against serious disease, he said. Available data shows vaccines are 96% effective in preventing COVID hospitalizations and deaths from Delta variant infections.</blockquote>
