Fully vaccinated Americans can gather with other vaccinated people indoors without wearing a mask or social distancing, according to long-awaited guidance from federal health officials, the AP reported.
The recommendations also say that vaccinated people can come together in the same way with people considered at low-risk for severe disease, such as in the case of vaccinated grandparents visiting healthy children and grandchildren.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced the guidance Monday.
The guidance is designed to address a growing demand, as more adults have been getting vaccinated and wondering if it gives them greater freedom to visit family members, travel, or do other things like they did before the COVID-19 pandemic swept the world last year.
“We know that people want to get vaccinated so they can get back to doing the things they enjoy with the people they love,” said CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky, in a statement.
We’ve been gathering indoors with no masks since September and have been totally fine but thanks for your permission Haman. You can keep your poisonous injections to yourself CDC. This is not a vaccine but some gene therapy. No thanks. Papers please
“have been totally fine….” Is a relative term, some of us lost parents grandparents siblings spouses and no I’m not talking about in the heat of the pandemic I’m talking about in the last four five six months, so to say totally fine is completely wrong insensitive and disgusting, I understand the CDC is full of trash but being vaccinated and starting to go in public is common sense just because the CDC said it doesn’t mean you have to trash it…. the only thing that’s worse than the government controlling us is people like you turning against common sense… Read more »
“Gene therapy” is what you write. You obviously lack a fundamental knowledge of basic biology. It is not scientifically possible for RNA to have an affect on DNA whithout specialized enzymes, namely Reverse Transcriptase, which our bodies do not have. Take off your tin-foil hat and go read a book instead of spewing your baseless nonsense.
Psychological brainwashing at work here.
Summer is coming when the cases will plummet anyways but they’ll attribute it to the vaccine without hard controlled objective evidence.
Can’t wait for the next planned chaos they’ll organize to keep us stressed and distract instead.
Sorry CDC and your corrupt buddies, your ruse is up. Many people are wide awake to your fraudulent and criminal activity. Nuremberg trials 2.0
Did it plummet this past summer? No it did not.
Actually, yes it did. And came back stronger in the fall.
Yes it sure did. I’ve been tracking it every week or so. But the city crooks shifted to harping on the’percentages’ which skyrocketed while the number of cases plummeted. Well yeah, less testing equals higher percentage of positives tested. We are being played big time.
And all the healthcare workers!!
It was Trump who sped it up
Gave my dad a’h covid when he was in the hospital. He tested negative when he came in, wasn’t allowed visitors but they have it to him. And many of these healthcare workers refused to take the vaccine. No, not all healthcare workers are heroes…
The credit for the vaccine belongs entirely to Trump. When he said there’d be a vaccine by year’s end, and perhaps even before the election, everyone mocked him and accused him of playing politics, and nobody expected anything for at least three years. And yet the vaccine was ready as he said, before the election — and that news was carefully kept secret until after the election so as not chas vesholom to help him. Biden was told about it in secret, but Trump was not. Just one of the many ways in which the election was stolen.
A true hero!!
Since he’s been on every side of the issue (masks don’t work. No, they’re required. You need two of them; COVID can’t be spread through the air. No, it can; and so forth), sure, you can find something that he said that’s right, and make him out to be a “true hero” for that. Meanwhile, the rest of us know good and well that he’s been an incompetent failure as far back as the 1980s.
We didn’t wait or ask for your permission. We did what was right and normal. Because tomorrow you’ll come with something else that will contradict what you just said. So you keep on dreideling your OWN lives while we move on in our own lives. Thanks!
Thank you scientist
If those who are not yet vaccinated wore their masks and social distanced, imagine how much further ahead this country would be. Please take Covid seriously so that this pandemic can be over sooner.
Facts are facts: FLORIDA VS. CALIFORNIA
Florida, which has been more open and less restricted than California, has recorded just above 1.5 million cases. Yet California, despite being among the strictest in the nation when it comes to COVID lockdowns, has recorded nearly twice that figure since the start of the pandemic. Both states have roughly the same number of cases per 100,000 residents.
In other words, the infection rates are roughly equal.
Exactly its destroying our economy!
Its crazy
and that is teh exact reason why we should take covid seriously and just listen to the rules and get herd immunity so this all cna end and we get our economy back.
(And everyone [besides for Crown Heights and other communities that act as if there is no pandemic], can get their lives back to normal
Next up…Only those who comply and are vaccinated can be “privileged” to have citizen rights
If this community believed more in science rather than conspiracy theories maybe we wouldn’t have lost so many of our greatest Chassidim.
Vaccines are a must for every person. They’re tested, they’re safe, they work, and they’ll save many more lives.
Love hearing others in my community supporting science and truth. Thank you!!
Than lives would have been saved. Instead of trying antiviral medicine like donald trump got, they put everyone on ventilators. Even now,when they try other methods,patients are neglected. Truth prevails over worshipping corrupt scientists. I believe in scientists too! But True scientists. Doctors and nurses can be heroes..most of the time they’re not and will follow blindly . Patients need advocates,very sad
Ventilators were used when there was no data about the most effective ways to treat the virus.
Now that the virus has been around for a while, there’s enough data to know what works and doesn’t work and the CDC has always modified its advice in accordance with the best science and data available at the time.
If this country really cared about our lives. They wouldve closed the boarders when they first heard about the virus. Enough said! We all got this virus because the us didnt care when they shoulve. The mask thing is just to cover up from lawsuits! Guys wake up
Thanks to Dr. Fauci, President Biden, and all the healthcare workers, things are starting to look up. Keep wearing your masks and social distancing if you have not been vaccinated!!
that you can’t be bothered to give credit to President Trump for spearheading the development of the vaccine (look up Operation Warp Speed). Now why is that?
They shoulve closed the boarders than nonone woulve got the virus. It wouldve fizzled out…
