Fully vaccinated Americans can return to life without masks, CDC says

for the CDC being too slow to provide a path back to normalcy for fully vaccinated people, over 117 million of whom are in the U.S. Walensky has defended the CDC's approach as scientifically-based to ensure protection not just for individuals but also the entire U.S. population.

"One is the effectiveness of the vaccines in general in real world populations. One is the effectiveness against variants, which was just published last week. And then the effectiveness in preventing transmissibility," Walensky said.In this Feb. 14, 2021, file photo, passengers wait in a Union Square subway station in New York.

"It is the people who are not fully vaccinated in those settings who might not be wearing a mask who are not protected, and it is those people that we are encouraging to get vaccinated and to wear a mask and to physically distance,” Walensky said.

Sen. Bill Cassidy, a Republican from Louisiana, told Walensky the American people have"just lost patience with us, with you guys." "I have been completely forthcoming with respect to the science, with respect to our guidance, with respect to our numbers, with respect to our cases. And I really look forward to updating the guidance and providing the science that allows us to do so very soon," Walensky said on CNN.

Some experts, like Donald Milton, a professor at the University of Maryland’s School of Public Health, fully supported the CDC’s slow approach and intends on still wearing a mask until positive test rates fall substantially. "We have to be prepared to be flexible, and that means pulling back on controls when things look good," said Dr. Joe Allen, a professor at Harvard’s T.H. Chan School of Public Health.

What a difference a Real President Makes

If you wear a mask I think your an idiot

Exactly put the mask BS to rest!

How about treating everyone with respect. That's what I was taught growing up. Give respect, get respect.

'All in this together, as long as you do what I say, then we need kindness and respect, but if you won't do what I say, then fuck you, you're not human. We need to stop politicizing this and put it to rest'

Cancelled my vax appt due to his politicization of this issue. Happy to not have to wear a mask now.

Please,just treat people the way you want to be treated,no matter the skin color,no matter the ethnicity,no matter how they are sexually, kindness and compassion, tolerance,TRUE religions are built upon such principles, modern man twists them to fit his twisted prerogative.

I’ve earned the “right”? You dirty tyrant this is the land of the free you don’t tell me when I’ve earned the right to do something.

People don't earn the right to do anything Joe. They are born with them.

joebiden This is all possible because of OPERATION WARP SPEED. Thank you Donald Trump for making this possible.!!

Wear a mask or don’t, get vaccinated or don’t, just don’t shame/bully people that choose to approach the situation differently than you do.

How about if you see someone without a mask?
