CDC now issuing crazy talk; stops encouraging testing

[Bugsy McGurk]

Even as to people who have been in close contact with people infected with Covid. Insane.

Why? All part of Trump’s directive to “keep the numbers down” to create the false illusion of progress as the election approaches.

Horrifying. Our public health infrastructure is now directed by Trump’s political agenda.

Updated CDC guidelines now say people exposed to coronavirus may not need to be tested

The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has changed its Covid-19 testing guidelines. The agency no longer recommends testing for most people without symptoms, even if they've been in close contact with someone known to have the virus.

More CDC crazy talk...telling people not to insist on masks if there is resistance.

This is the “protection of public health” in the age of Trump....

Don't argue with anti-maskers, CDC warns stores

When in doubt, don't argue with anti-maskers.

P.S. Not that there was any doubt, but the daffy new CDC guidance discouraging testing came from “the top down.”

CDC was pressured 'from the top down' to change coronavirus testing guidance, official says

A sudden change in federal guidelines on coronavirus testing came this week as a result of pressure from the upper ranks of the Trump administration, a federal health official close to the process tells CNN.

So deplorable.

This is bullsh!t. One of the ways we're keeping our numbers at work down to zero is using strict contact tracing. We have three people who's spouses work in the medical field and all of those spouses have been tested multiple times after exposure to an infected person at work. The people who I work with self-quarantine while they are waiting for their spouses' results. Does this new ruling mean that medical personnel who come in contact with infected persons won't be able to get tests if they're currently asymptomatic? So their families won't know if they, in turn, get infected by their as-yet asymptomatic family member? And in turn infect people they work with?

Donald is the leader of a death cult.

Yup. Testing and contact tracing are key to limiting the spread, and now we have Trump leaning on the CDC to discourage testing.

Downright surreal.

So businesses have no rights to protect their 'essential' workforce. What else can people do to workers if they 'insist'? Swear at them and be allowed to remain on the premises? Verbally threaten them and remain? What rights remain for working people who want to be safe? The smoking bans were put in place largely to protect the workers who are surrounded by passive smoke all day. Why don't mask requirements follow that precedent?

Insanity. It’s the job of the CDC to provide public health advice, not to tell people to ignore it.

Your science-denying circlejerk has been amusing, boys! Keep it up.

You need a mascot. Maybe a guy who plays a scientist on TV for idiots who can't tell the difference?

LOL

In Trumplandia, where ignorance is bliss, people do not have diseases if they don’t get tested for them.

I really wish the left would decide if they believe in the CDC or not. It seems to all come down to IF the CDC says what the left wants.

So now you're calling scientists "ignorant". I guess it's only science if you approve of it.

CDC update:

They are now ending their quarantine guidelines.

The bottom line is clear - Trump wants to pretend that the pandemic is over to get re-elected, and he’s perfectly willing to kill a lot of people to advance his political agenda.

We really are.

Trump said he could kill someone on 5th Avenue and retain the support of his rabble. Far worse, he is intentionally taking actions that will kill thousands more people, and his rabble clap like trained seals.

Deplorable!

Either one can be totally insane.

You are pretending CDC scientists are issuing these bizarre decrees that will greatly exacerbate the pandemic. As you know, these decrees actually come down from Trump.
