Let's discuss second-guessing the CDC...

103. Lets discuss

How the cdc is not infallible and in this case and in other past recommendations is not following science.

1- numbers of infections are still too high
2- vaccination levels are still too low
3- variants which can overcome some of the vaccines are present here


It is too soon to stop masking.

In addition there is no system for establishing who is actually vaccinated and no plan/ policy to stop the non vaccinated from going without masks in required areas. So the whole thing is a joke because now anyone who doesn't want to will not wear a mask whether vaccinated or not. Several large businesses have already stated vaccinated people will not be required to wear masks and they also have no policy to determine who is vaccinated etc.

The cdc and many others including Fauci said masks would not protect the wearer, and would not prevent spread either early on, both of which are false. Many knew it was false when they said it.

It also shouldn’t have to be said that under dump the cdc lied about numerous things regarding covid and as I recall some there were involved in helping the administration in concealing data of covid infections. It appears that may happen again since I read they were not going to report all break through infections in vaccinated people now.

Sadly many of their decisions have not had the interest of protecting the public in mind and were designed to control the situation with certain numbers of deaths now acceptable, which would have been outrageous pre pandemic.

A true scientist will tell you that science itself is not infallible, it is constantly in flux being questioned and changing/ evolving. Smart people evaluate and question such decisions as this one.
