The CDC is reportedly planning to “loosen its covid isolation recommendations” to say that people don’t have to isolate at home for five days after a positive Covid test.

The bold and cutting edge announcement comes years after almost everyone had already discarded the guidance.

According to The Washington Post, the new guidance reflects “how much the covid-19 landscape as changed…with most people having developed a level of immunity to the virus because of prior infection or vaccination.”

It’s actually prior infection, not the vaccines, which is providing the best and most enduring immunity, according to scientists. It turns out the vaccines don’t prevent infection, transmission, or illness, despite a sliding scale series of claims from the vaccine industry and public health officials. Nor do the vaccines necessarily prevent hospitalization and death.
