The CDC’s race to the bottom of the credibility barrel continues apace.
CBS News White House correspondent Weijia Jiang reports:
UPDATED testing guidance: If a fully vaccinated person has a known exposure to someone with suspected or confirmed COVID-19, @CDCgov recommends getting tested 3-5 days after exposure and wearing a mask in public indoor settings for 14 days or until they receive a negative result.

Alternatively, fully vaccinated people can tell the CDC to get bent.

So you're saying that if you're vaccinated you have to act exactly like you're not vaccinated because … ? https://t.co/kS130ms8f1

So, does the vaccine work or not https://t.co/9kz9nzaWFy

It is getting so confusing again!

It’s confusing because none of it makes any scientific sense. The CDC has no idea what the hell they’re doing.
And we’re all paying for their incompetence and ineptitude.
cool, why does this require me, a vaccinated person, to wear mask indoors? https://t.co/JnhkrG6G58

Yes, inquiring minds want to know.
It certainly has been a disaster. You’d think the media would want to get to the bottom of the CDC’s shenanigans. Or you’d like to think they would.
Instead, on the whole, the media have been conspicuously incurious about the whole thing.
This is looney tunes and none of these journalists are asking questions about it. Just posting the statement and shrugging along. https://t.co/crId0yWXZX

Like, there are legitimate questions to ask, journalists. This would make a great starting point:

Shut down the CDC and then maybe we’ll talk.

So much for asking questions.
Amazing. They all just went along with it. https://t.co/WV6023WMEl
