You are dead right. It's getting worse. Not too long ago the CDC said that it was happy times for the fully vaccinated and that they need not wear face masks indoors. Now it's about face. Why not divulge the whole ball of wax -- both the good and the bad -- so that folks can deal accordingly? BTW, I continued wearing my masks simply because I felt the virus was far from being wiped out. I thought the statement about the fully vaccinated going mask-free was premature.
