CDC says most fully vaccinated Americans can skip coronavirus testing
KTLA ^ | May 23, 2021 | AP

Posted on 05/23/2021 10:46:37 AM PDT by CondoleezzaProtege

CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky said the updated guidelines are based on studies showing the robust effectiveness of the vaccine in preventing disease in various age groups and settings. Even when vaccinated people do contract COVID-19, their infections tend to be milder, shorter and less likely to spread to others.

As a result, the CDC says vaccinated people can generally be excluded from routine workplace screening for COVID-19.

That change could eliminate testing headaches like the one recently reported by the New York Yankees, when one player and several staffers tested positive on a highly sensitive COVID-19 test, despite being vaccinated.

It’s inconvenient to narrative when someone is fully vaccinated AND tests positive for Covid still. So why let word get out. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Getting the #s that make Biden look good.

We had to test everyone 3 times a day when Trump was in office !

Maybe I should say ... NOT GETTING THE NUMBERS at all.

So what they’re saying is the testing isn’t accurate.

Less testing equals less positive cases equals good “savior” narrative.

They’ve accomplished some of satan’s goal . . .to mess up America and weaken the churches. . . because of our weakness and unwillingness to stand for righteousness; however, God is on the throne and Jesus has already won the Victory. Some Christians are stronger than ever before. Let us pray for Divine appointments every day to spread the Gospel. . .the Salvation message!

Gee, how time flies. I didn’t realize that we’d had another election and that the CDC had been made the supreme governing body of this nation.

Less testing equals less positive cases equals "see, vaccines work! Get yours today!"

Its not that it isn't accurate, but it doesn't mean what they say it does. (This is my opinion as a person trained in formal logic, and an elementary level of biology, but I am not a doctor).

What I mean by 'doesn't mean what they say it does' is the test accurately shows the presence of genetic material from the COVID-19 virus. This is correct.

What a positive test DOES NOT necessarily mean is that a person is SICK with COVID-19 disease. If you are vaccinated or have natural immunity, obviously you can still be exposed. When you are exposed, the virus goes into your body, and has some level of activity before your immune system takes it out.

When we randomly test people, we are likely to encounter situations where the person is in exactly this state. Not sick, but positive for COVID-19 genetic material, because they were exposed, and what was supposed to happen, happened. It really doesn't make sense to test randomly once a person is immune, then call it a 'breakthrough case' if there are no symptoms or sickness.

This is not to say that breakthrough cases don't exist (they definitely do) but a positive test != a breakthrough case.

CDC to the injected: “Don’t ask don’t tell.”

If, per the CDC, the injected shouldn’t bother getting tested, then how can they monitor the longevity of the injection? So, their position is going to be: “Shut up and get your booster shot every 6 months.”

“studies showing the robust effectiveness of the vaccine”
Ya, right. It’s not a vaccine. Folks, the B.S. meter is pegged at maximum and the needle is going to break off. We’ve seen more deaths from this shot than all vaccines in the last 20 years combined — and that’s just in the first 4 to 5 months. Now we are seeing youth with enlarged hearts after the shot.

Cynicism is appropriate.

The deprogramming must happen to return to normal. I don’t care what deceit they have to resort to accomplish it.

No it’s common sense.
Something almost gone around here.

Define fully vaccinated? If you are six months past initial inoculation, are you fully vaxed? Can you then identify as a vaxed American? Change pronouns, perhaps? I heard this crap, if it doesn’t cause side effects, wears off. So vaxed is not necessarily fully vaxed even if you are recently vaxed…
