If there's one thing you do it's simple reasoning. Delta is indeed more


contagious but several sources are saying more likely to end up in a hospital or dead. Just not enough data to say how much more likely.

From the Scientific American article:
There is some indication that the Delta variant may also result in more severe disease. A study in Scotland, published in the Lancet, found the hospitalization rate of patients with that variant was about 85 percent higher than that of people with the Alpha variant. But because of the time lag between hospitalizations and deaths, there is not enough data to say whether or not Delta is more deadly than other variants.
