Notorious Australian socialite Anthony Hess unknowingly spread the Delta
strain of coronavirus to at least 60 people in a single weekend.
Hess, 40, best known for his ill-fated friendship with Married At First
Sight star Stacey Hampton and defeating Sydney PR queen Roxy Jacenko in
court, fled to Los Angeles last year after a punch-up with his bikie
boss mate Toby Mitchell.
As much of the US, including Hess, was vaccinated against Covid, masks
and lockdowns gave way to boozy parties and nightclub openings.

However, the country is now gripped by the highly infectious Delta
strain and many fully vaccinated Americans are catching the virus and
getting sick.

Hess said he only developed symptoms mid-last week, well after his big
bender, and spent four days in bed barely functional
Delta is so infectious that it only took one wild weekend on July 9-11
for Hess to spread it to 20 confirmed cases, and another 40 people who
now have symptoms.
'Honestly, I have no idea how many people I infected, I came into
contact with so many it could be hundreds,' he told Daily Mail Australia.
'I feel so guilty, I've had dozens of friends message me saying they
have symptoms, but I'm vaccinated and had no idea I had Covid.'
The reluctant super-spreader, who had two shots of Moderna, said he only
developed symptoms mid-last week, well after his big bender, and spent
four days in bed barely functional.
'I basically slept for four days straight without eating, I’m sweating
so bad, felt like I was dying and lost so much weight,' he said.
He also suffered the classic blocked nose, sore throat, dry cough, and
shortness of breath.
However, he knows without being fully vaccinated - as only 11 per cent
of Australians are - he would have been in a lot more trouble.

Hess said his super-spreading and what is happening in Los Angeles
should be a wakeup call to Australians who don't take the pandemic
seriously.
'It just goes to show how easily people can spread the Delta strain
without knowing,' he said.
'Everyone in Australia thinks it's a joke, it's not. LA is putting
restrictions back on. The virus is spreading so fast, people are dying.
'I didn't take it seriously either, until it happened to me. In
Australia no-one knows anyone who's had it.'
Hess said it appeared the Delta variant was overpowering Covid vaccines
as most of the people he infected were double-jabbed. He now worries
there will be a massive outbreak.
Los Angeles is now gripped by the highly infectious Delta strain and
many fully vaccinated Americans are catching the virus and getting sick +8

'It’s going to be mayhem here because it has been normal for so long,
all the big parties and festivals. Everyone is freaking out,' he said.
'Everyone in Australia is complaining [about lockdowns]? At least the
government is protecting people.'
Delta's infection rate in countries with high vaccinations has prompted
renewed restrictions and mask wearing, and raised concerns immunisations
may not be the silver bullet to cure the world of Covid for good.
Australia recorded 138 new cases of coronavirus on Tuesday, 110 of which
were in Sydney's outbreak, and 14 million people are in lockdown.

The party animal with a nose for trouble got special permission to leave

Hess called the bashing a 'drunken misunderstanding between mates'
sparked by Hampton spreading false rumours that he called Mitchell a
'dog and a c**t', and asked for the charges to be dropped.
Police prosecuted Mitchell for the assault anyway, even after Hess flew
to LA to avoid being questioned over the brawl.
Australian Government flight caps mean he can't get back to his
Melbourne home town as there are no flights.

A frequent drama magnet, Hess was hit with a restraining order by
prominent PR maven Ms Jacenko in 2019, but had it overturned in court in
February 2020.

in Sydney's Paddington after an altercation at one of her speaking events.
Hess denied the vandalism saying 'gay guys don't do graffiti' and the
court agreed, but he was last month fined $2,400 after new video
evidence was discovered.
His falling out with former BFF Hampton was no less dramatic with photos
of the pair shopping last year critical to getting the MAFS favourite
fined for breaching quarantine rules.
Since their messy parting of way they have not missed an opportunity to
snipe at each other on social media.

among us are unwittingly contagious (i.e pre-symptomatic or
asymptomatic) in order to http://bit.ly/convince_it_forward (John

best while preparing for the worse-case scenario of the Alpha lineage
mutations and others like the Gamma, Beta, Epsilon, Iota, Lambda &
Delta lineage mutations combining to form hybrids that render current
COVID vaccines no longer effective.
Indeed, I am wonderfully hungry ( http://bit.ly/RapidTestCOVID-19 )

So how are you ?
