Was it a mistake for the CDC to tell vaccinated Americans it was ok to unmask back in May? @angie_rasmussen tells @MehdiRHasan: “I do think it was a mistake … It was a one-size-fits-all for the country and the country is in very different places.”

When Dr Fauci said "there's no reason to walk around with a mask" it was wrong. When CDC Director Dr Walensky said "VAXXED OR MASKED" it was wrong. Why listen to self styled experts from Bethesda and Atlanta. You pay when they're wrong.
As a fully vaccinated 🇺🇸 I'll wear a mask in crowded places. It's just common sense especially since we still haven't achieved herd immunity. A mask is a good idea. Since wearing 1, haven't been sick w/ a cold. It's a big deal for me, b/c I usually get sick several times a yr!
I agree that it was huge mistake in May to relax restrictions on masks . Biden , CDC & others have allowed a very loud group of ignorant ppl to bully them . They are not smart , not that big of numbers, just loud ,crude and rude , calling shots 4 all of us . I call bs

I don't listen to anything Angie Rasmussen has to say anymore. She has lost all credibility by resisting calls to acknowledge that Covid is airborne and by attacking scientists who tried to get that message out.

Its a novel virus so it can mutate into novel variants e.g. Delta. And there were already other variants out here. I never thought they should tell any American not to mask up while we are still in this thing. I didn't pay attention to that and continue to wear my mask.

Stop blaming the CDC & Biden & doctors for changing messages. It’s a virus that is changing & mutating constantly. They assumed more ppl would be responsible & get vaccinated. Not listening to lies & trying to own the libs…

Yes. How could they possibly think an honor system would work on a bunch of people who didn’t care enough about the people around them to wear masks even at the height of the pandemic?

Thank you for correcting the mistake. Emphasize that all mitigation measures are a layer of protection against Covid. #vaccinate #MaskMandate #ventilate #WashYourHands
