Q: i am fully vaccinated with astrazeneca vaccine and a covid survivor as well. should i be worried of the delta variant?

: Two shots of AstraZeneca vaccine were 67% effective against the Delta variant, and you have the antofdies as well from the infection itself. I would still wear a mask in crowded areas. Chances are slim and in the rare case of infection the vaccines dramatically reduce the risk of serious illness that leads to hospitalization or death.
