And my best wishes, as well.
One of my bil's (lives in CA) just got diagnosed. It is presumed to be Delta for several reasons, but no idea as to how he got it, etc. He is vaccinated. My sister tested negative so they are living in separate areas of the house until it is safe for her. Other details, but not for sharing here. Just that it really is true that the Delta variant is EASY to catch and pass on to others especially when not taking any of the easy precautions!

It's almost certainly Delta (95%-ish), it has driven out most other variants in the USA, as it spreads so aggressively.
We had a social event here a few weeks ago, all people were vaccinated, or claimed to be. One person had Delta, and was unvaccinated. About a dozen new infections resulted from the gathering, many of them in vaccinated people. The several other unvaccinated people who were at the gathering, who had fibbed about their vaccination status, also got infected. This is the largest case cluster we've had here since the pandemic began.
This new stuff spreads like chicken pox. Beware.
People are now lying and saying they weren't vaccinated so they can get another dose, choosing to give themselves boosters.

Is someone somewhere doing something they haven't been given permission to do?
The states ability to keep track of vaccines administered and to whom, seems not so great to begin with (this would also be a problem for vaccine passports), and if vaccines are expiring and being thrown out anyway because unvaxed people are refusing them, why not I guess, except there's not really much evidence a 3rd shot is needed with mRNA at least. But ... but ... they shold be going to other countries. Yes, but that's beyond the ability of anyone getting a first or a 3rd vaccine to influence. Anymore than eating my broccoli is going to save the starving children.
