The arrival of the Delta variant really was a massive curveball that few experts saw coming.
It ripped through populations overseas and quickly punched holes in Fortress Australia.
It especially challenged our public health response with its incredible infectiousness and has taken hold in NSW, Victoria and ACT.

On today's Coronacast, a very special guest explains all.
