Former White House coronavirus task force member Adm. Brett Giroir urged Americans to get vaccinated, but added that the messaging from both the Biden administration and its CDC Director Rochelle Walensky has been "rough." Despite the CDC's messaging stumbles, Giroir reiterated that most unvaccinated Americans will at some point contract the highly contagious Delta variant. "What I said, if you're not vaccinated or you haven't had COVID before, it's a matter of time before you get Delta. "One thing has proven true time and time again and remains true if you get vaccinated: You're 95% protected against hospitalization and death. As for Walensky and President Biden, Giroir said messaging public health advisories isn't easy.
