At least three Democratic governors said they will not follow new federal guidance on coronavirus testing.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently revised COVID-19 testing guidelines, now advising people who may have been exposed to the virus but are not experiencing symptoms that they may not need to be tested.
“If you have been in close contact (within 6 feet) of a person with a COVID-19 infection for at least 15 minutes but do not have symptoms: You do not necessarily need a test unless you are a vulnerable individual or your health care provider or State or local public health official recommend you take one,” the updated CDC guidance says.
Previously, the health agency said viral testing was recommended for all individuals who believed they may have been exposed. The change — which the CDC made quietly through a website update and without a public announcement or explanation — drew widespread criticism and confusion from public health experts who said testing of asymptomatic individuals is key to slowing and containing the virus.

Beacuse his health czar has 'predicted' that many, no science involved, just feelings:

Of course, the main reason is Der Furher would lose absolute power over his peons if he followed the new CDC guidelines.
Not tested when I was released Friday, I might add.
Sissy-lick is a Democrat. Democrats and sane responses have no intersection, in my view, regarding COVID-19.
What part of “or your State...recommend” it do they disagree with
Something is flawed with these tests they have positive results when people are NOT infected!! I think we are being DUPED again!! The hospitalizations are next to nil at this time and these tests ARE BOGUS!! I think Trump knows!! His republican governors are giving him the TRUE SCOOP!! Trumps FDA and CDC are DEEP STATE and he knows he can’t trust them under ANY circumstances!!}
Around here, we call him Gov. Sissy-pants.
The cynical part of me says they have this amazing foreknowledge because they've already cooked the books in advance.
But, but, science!
These guvs are total a-holes who are responsible for a good portion of those who died from Corona and the sickening side effects of these asinine lock downs.
>Around here, we call him Gov. Sissy-pants.
I’d just like to call him terminated
Yep. No conscience.
This is all horse manure and scare tactics being used to keep people under demon-rat control. I have not seen a single case in 3 months. I also don’t trust test kits that give a positive on one sample and a negative on the next sample. Critical diagnosis can’t be based on just one test. Just like if a patient lab result comes back with high potassium, you always check it again to make sure it really is high and not just problem with testing.

The books are being cooked. These UW IHME projectons are the ones used since day 1 of COVID and have been garbage. This Institute is heavily funded by the Gates Foundation. In WA, we have a unique problem in that Governor Inslee’s daughter-in-law works for the Gates Foundation. It’s an inside job to lock us down in WA for sure. From the site you can get projections for any state out to December 1st right now. In WA, we are going to go from from about 11 deaths statewide to over 160+ deaths daily statewide Does anybody think this blue state governor isn;t going to lock us down harder than ever?
They accused President Trump of not listening to the experts.
Now they will not listen to the experts.
Confusing but not really.

Expect Whitmer to be on the list soon.
She’s great at saying all of her executive orders (She’s issued 170 of them so far during the pandemic) are issued by “following the science”.
Except when the science doesn’t follow her desired political outcome. Then she doesn’t explain why.
Our POS governor here in KY used to tout the CDC guidance when it agreed with his agenda but now says he and his state experts know better than the CDC.
There is only one “science” the demoRat party follows and that is “political science.”
Wait, so if these States are refusing CDC guidance now, does that mean they no longer have to wear masks?
Dafuq is Abbott waiting for?!
Well, these are the same people who insist that there are dozens and dozens of different genders.

Screw you Dimslee!
In fairness, the CDC has been diasterous throughout this.
inslee says get tested, and if it is nefative, quarantine for 14 days anyway.
if you are going to quarantine, why wasre a test?
