Americans who celebrated Thanksgiving with others outside their household should assume they are infectious and a “dangerous to others,” the White House Coronavirus Task Force warns in a startling new report obtained by ABC News.

The task force advises older Americans should be warned to stay away from indoor public spaces and to have groceries and medications delivered.

The dire warnings come as cases continue to top 180,000 per day and COVID-19 patients crowd local hospitals. The numbers have alarmed public health experts who compare case numbers in early summer to 25,000 new cases per day. Medical staff members prepare for an intubation procedure on a patient in the COVID-19 intensive care unit at the United Memorial Medical Center, Nov. 19, 2020, in Houston.

The group, however, issues weekly lengthy reports to the nation’s governors that tailor recommendations by state and analyzes local trends. The idea is that local leaders review these reports and make recommendations on testing and other public health measures like mask mandates.

How about assuming you have a 97-99% chance of being ok?

“Assume you’ve been infected”? Always assuming the worse

How is this any different than youth sports team that are allowed under most states rules? I am in Washington state and kids can train for soccer 4 nights aweek with only limitation being a mask. How was being outside your house for Thanksgiving different?
