Specific symptoms are reported by patients – vaccinated and non-vaccinated – infected with the Delta Strain – Here’s how to identify the new strain of Coronavirus in time
The Delta mutation, first discovered in India, has become dominant globally as it is detected in more than 124 countries.
This new variant of the Covid-19 is up to 100% more contagious than the original Wuhan strain and makes no exceptions by infecting even fully vaccinated individuals.

The Delta variant, apart from its high transmissibility, something that had been observed in the case of Alpha (British strain) seems to differ from the other known variants of the coronavirus in the manifestation of symptoms.
The reporting of the new symptoms that characterize the Delta strain by clinicians and researchers is done in real conditions, i.e. when vaccinated and unvaccinated patients seek medical help.
The most commonly reported symptoms that “photograph” the Delta mutation are:
- Runny nose
- Persistent cough
- Sore throat
- Headache
- Fever.
“Cough and loss of smell are less common. And headache, sore throat, runny nose, and fever are present based on the most recent surveys in the U.K., where more than 90% of the cases are due to the Delta strain,” said Inci Yildirim Pediatrician Infectious Diseases from Yale University Health System.
“A recent study from the United Kingdom showed that children and adults under 50 were 2.5 times more likely to become infected with Delta,” Yildirim said.
In contrast, anemia is less commonly reported and needs to be investigated scientifically. It should be noted that anomaly and tastelessness characterized both the original Wuhan strain and the “Alpha”.
It is worth noting that the severity of the symptoms associated with the Delta mutation depends on both the individual medical history of the individual and whether or not he or she has been vaccinated against Covid-19. However, in fully vaccinated individuals the symptoms are milder and last less.

“As older age groups get vaccinated, those who are younger and unvaccinated will be at higher risk of getting COVID-19 with any variant. But Delta seems to be impacting younger age groups more than previous variants.”
