COVID-19 Delta Variant
4 things to know about the Delta variant:
- COVID-19 continues to spread in the US and variants are circulating. The best way to protect yourself from the virus is to get a COVID-19 vaccine. If unvaccinated, continue to wear a mask and keep physical distance in public spaces
- It is normal for viruses to change through mutation. The Delta variant is considered a variant of concern and is one of four notable variants in the US
- The Delta variant spreads more easily from person to person than the original strain of COVID-19
- So far, studies suggest that current authorized vaccines protect against the circulating variants, including the Delta variant. Vaccines protect you from getting sick, needing to be hospitalized, and dying.

Mid Bergen Regional Health Commission was founded in 1978 as a governmental entity in order to provide an array of Public Health services to communities in Bergen County. The founding member towns of Bogota, Englewood Cliffs, Leonia, New Milford, and River Edge, formed the Commission as a means to save taxpayer dollars through shared services. Since then, we have expanded, and currently serve a total of fifteen jurisdictions.
