CDC Eases Covid Guidelines

[Sinder]

The CDC hasn't had this guidance for almost a year. So it sounds like your DH workplace is either not up to date on guidance or are being very cautious for some reason (maybe they don't want to be hit with workman's comp claims).

I think it’s because the employees complained so much but its a huge corp so I’m sure there are other reasons.
I’m hoping his company will change its policy since the CDC has updated its guidelines once again. They are so far behind at this point something has to change.

They need people to get back to work... I guess the economy matters more than health.

Some never stopped working. COVID is milder and isn't going away plus we have better therapeutics. Some will need to be more cautious due to underlying conditions but not necessary for the average health person.

Sure shorten the isolation time the week after I had to isolate. I felt bad for 3 days then it was like a switch. I was still testing positive but I had zero symptoms by day 4. I stayed isolated an extra day for dh’s sake but I think he’s got some weird super immunity. He had exposure from 3 of us, and close exposure too and he never got a booster. He never ended up getting it and had to take off a bunch of work. Hopefully with this change his company will drop required stay at home if you’ve been exposed BS

41% are totally asymptomatic.

Are people still not back at work?

I mean, they can’t be out of work if they have Covid.
