New recommendations from federal health officials this week on when vaccinated Americans should don face masks came with a startling bolt of news: People who have had their shots and become infected with the delta variant of the coronavirus can harbor large amounts of virus just like unvaccinated people. That means they could become spreaders of the disease and should return to wearing masks indoors in certain situations, including when vulnerable people are present.
But the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention did not publish the new research. In the text of the updated masking guidance, the agency merely cited “CDC COVID-19 Response Team, unpublished data, 2021.”
Some outside scientists have their own message: Show us the data.
“They’re making a claim that people with delta who are vaccinated and unvaccinated have similar levels of viral load, but nobody knows what that means,” said Gregg Gonsalves, an associate professor at the Yale School of Public Health. “It’s meaningless unless we see the data.”

Data?? We don’ need no stinkin’ DATA!!!
...those that aren't already dead.
Are the buzzards coming home to roost?
TO BE CLEAR- I am pro-safe and ethical vaccines and vax development x 30+ years.
For preventative vaccines, one must develop, license etc. within a safety/ethics box
But shortcuts have been made with these, and other options deprioritized pic.twitter.com/0ol9iL4f4Z— Robert W Malone, MD (@RWMaloneMD) July 28, 2021
The title overstates my conclusion - vaccine could cause the virus to be more dangerous. The fragments of information being disclosed are consistent with this.https://t.co/I8Z84YnOea— Robert W Malone, MD (@RWMaloneMD) July 28, 2021
Goodness, if I were vaxxed I would be bewildered and vexed due to so much controversy on the treatments while at the same time knowing these treatments were not properly vetted - the only thing many cling to is Trump supports them (may be enough for lots of people, but not for me - and I admire Trump.)
Interesting study came out earlier this week.
• Psychologists at the University of Pennsylvania conlcude from a study that trusting science is not enough. Without critical thinking, people who claim to “trust science” can be gullible (J Exp Soc Psych. 2021;96:104184 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jesp.2021.104184). They ran four experiments (N = 532, N = 472, N = 605, N = 382) with online U.S. samples introduced false claims concerning a (fictional) virus created as a bioweapon, mirroring conspiracy theories about COVID-19, and carcinogenic effects of GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms). Participants who trust science are more likely to believe and disseminate false claims that contain scientific references than false claims that do not. Reminding participants of the value of critical evaluation reduces belief in false claims, whereas reminders of the value of trusting science do not. We conclude that trust in science, although desirable in many ways, makes people vulnerable to pseudoscience.
Exactly.
Why do those the trust the federal government and the cadre of scientists not trust GMO foods, growth hormones for chicken and beef, pesticides for produce?
Why such a push for organic products by liberals?
Per the CDC,”Data? We doan need no stinkin’ data.”
This is series.
@ post 25. I trust the scientific method indeed. For now, anyway, I don’t trust the ‘scientists’.
According to Dan Crenshaw, the data came from India and was a single paper which FAILED peer review and was based on a vaccine not even available here in the states.
If average vaccinated and unvaccinated people get covid, there would be no reason I’ve seen that the vaccinated group would harbor more or less virus than the unvaccinated groups. What would be the mechanisms that would cause the vaccinated group to shed MORE virus? Both groups would equally be dangerous and should be quarantined.
Biden Makes “Neanderthal Joe” Move, re wearing a mask after vaccination!
Peter Doocy and Ted Cruz Call Xiden Out On it!!!
Xiden snaps on camera when Peter Doocy calls out his conflicting statements!
SCIENCE!
...something about expecting different results...
a study that trusting science is not enough. Without critical thinking, people who claim to “trust science” can be gullible>>> There is nothing to trust. It is true or false. If it is a theory then we wait and see. Gravity is not a theory. Jump off a bridge you go down. Same as jumping off your curb.
Data? You don’t need no stinkin’ data. Heel!!!
