Today, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention quietly ended its policy of differentiating within COVID-19 prevention guidance between those who have received Covid vaccines and those who have not.
CDC’s COVID-19 prevention recommendations no longer differentiate based on a person’s vaccination status because breakthrough infections occur, though they are generally mild, and persons who have had COVID-19 but are not vaccinated have some degree of protection against severe illness from their previous infection.
As explained by the CDC’s Greta Massetti, lead author of the new guidance:
Both prior infection and vaccination confer some protection against severe illness, and so it really makes the most sense to not differentiate with our guidance or our recommendations based on vaccination status at this time.
Someone might want to tell the millions of workers who lost their jobs, the millions of students who received injections out of anticipation for school mandates, and the millions of law-abiding citizens who have been, and often continue to be, excluded from everyday life activities and basic medical care due to their unwillingness to show proof that they received an mRNA shot they neither wanted nor needed, a differentiation that the CDC now admits does not make sense. All cool, I’m sure.

I cannot adequately describe my anger when I saw that this afternoon. How can any college/university, business, or military branch justify vaccine mandates at this point? I would like to thank the CDC for making the job of writing a religious exemption request (for the University where my daughter is going this fall) that much easier. It will also make the request for renewal of the religious exemption that was approved last academic year for my son that much easier. Yes - you read that right. He has to renew his religious exemption. Anyone who keeps a vaccine mandate at this point after today’s announcement is not following the science! 🤷🏻♀️
I am outraged for the hundreds of thousands of people who lost their jobs and careers over this vaccine BS.
