CNN’s Kaitlan Collins got the scoop on the latest from the CDC regarding travel recommendations.
This should clear everything right up:
JUST IN from @kaitlancollins: The CDC considered the possibility of changing travel recommendations for vaccinated people… but there was not enough momentum to adjust it now, two federal health officials familiar with the discussion tell CNN.

Oh, OK. Wait, what?
Momentum? https://t.co/eEwWjfsneX

wtf does this even mean? https://t.co/pQtMtIokxa

"considered" "possibility" "changing" "recommendations" "not enough momentum" "adjust" "now"
a truly empty statement https://t.co/J2CHwvyeJf

Not enough momentum?
I don't know what that means. Are CDC decisions being made based on public opinion, or what? https://t.co/28jHCS6NHn

Is that code for "not enough data to justify it" or "internal politics prevented a consensus around it?" Momentum doesn't leave us much to work with.

So, are we meant to believe the science or the momentum? https://t.co/fbgap4n5tm

Can anyone clear this up?
Momentum? What does that have to do with the science? https://t.co/pDUqV4PP6C

Well, you study momentum in physics, and physics is a science, so … it’s all science?
100% based on opinion, 0% based on science. https://t.co/JfUMd9N31m

But the CDC only follows the science. That’s what they told us!
Momentum of science, obviously. https://t.co/Wy4GOV3WIw

Momentum! That's #science. https://t.co/y95fhnqEnn

Out: Trust the Science
In: Trust the Momentum https://t.co/8NlbvnDw1j

Guess this means we should put all our faith in the momentum now.
What is "momentum? CDC recommendations should be based on science, not "momentum."

Can’t wait to see what ends up replacing “momentum.”
