Circling back?
So what incentive do the non vaccinated now have to get vaccinated if they can walk around without masks like the vaccinated?
Earlier in the pandemic, they said that washing hands and disinfecting surfaces was critical to flattening the curve. They said that ordinary people should not wear masks as they were needed only for medical professionals.
Now we are about to learn that a disease that under CDC guidance has destroyed the US economy and whose primary mode of transmission is airborne, no longer requires us to wear masks in indoor settings if we are vaccinated?
At what point will the CDC just admit that they have been clueless in their public recommendations and that citizens should use their best judgment (based on real science, not politics) in determining what if any personal protective equipment should be used?
The CDC has proven itself to not be honest nor trustworthy.
Well how very white of the CDC.
I agree with you but here in Delaware we MUST wear face masks in stores.
Don’t you have to go to the grocery store ever?
You know you are attempting to eliminate the common cold?
Thank you too much!
Me and my family have natural immunity and therefore are vaccinated.
‘In any case, the sooner we all vaccinate or get sick, the sooner, we achieve herd immunity and stop these variants from emerging.’

Covid: Prior infection vs vaccination
Sebastian Rushworth M.D.
Ok, let’s get to the results.
Over the course of 2,047,113 days of follow-up in the covid positive group, there were 78 cases of symptomatic covid-19 (by which we mean a positive test + at least one symptom).
Over the course of 2,971,436 days of follow-up in the covid negative group, there were 1,369 cases of symptomatic covid-19.
This works out to a relative risk reduction of 92%. For comparison, the Pfizer vaccine trial reported a reduction of 95%, the Moderna trial reported an reduction of 94%, the Astra-Zeneca trial reported a reduction of 70%, and the Johnson&Johnson trial reported a reduction of 67%.
So, on the face of it, prior infection is equivalent to the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines in terms of the level of protection offered, and much better than the Astra-Zeneca vaccine and J&J vaccine. In light of this, it seems completely unnecessary for people who have had covid to get the vaccine.
In fact, if the goal of governments is to get their populations to herd immunity as quickly as possible, it would make more sense to tell people who have had confirmed covid-19 that they don’t need to get vaccinated.
Vaccinating people who have already had covid-19 means delaying vaccination of people who haven’t had it, which means delaying the onset of herd immunity.
Sebastian Rushworth, MD agrees with you.

I live in PA and they’re just as harsh. I go into Giant food stores, Home Depot and a few local places without a mask. Just do it….you have to take a stand eventually.
Yes, and walking backwards.....................
That can be dangerous for old people!:)
“CDC is a PRIVATE organization WITH NO LEGAL AUTHORITY!!!!”
Although the CDC Foundation was chartered by Congress, it is not a government agency nor is it a division of CDC. It is a private, nonprofit organization classified as a 501(c)(3) public charity. Dec 20, 2019
Thanks for posting this reality. A lot of reality is being posted on this thread.
Maybe real private doctors who treat patients should be in charge!
They don’t need an incentive.
We’ll reach herd immunity without everyone getting vaccinated.
Life is gonna get real boring for the anti-vaxxers.
The religion type mania and panicked postings doesn’t matter.
No one cares what they do.
I caught this gem at your linked article:
“Permission to stop using them”
PERMISSION??
I think not!! No one needs your GD permission, CDC!!
Sure he is saying that now. Economy and the education system have both been severely hurt.
Job done.
So basically this is the next level of pressure to obey. Has no basis in whether anyone is safe or not. Just obey.
David, if you don’t mind I would like to use this where needed!:
