Imagine if instead of making COVID isolation guidelines as weak as the flu... We approved combo rapid tests and made them free and available for everyone... So that people could tell how long they need to isolate based on science and not feelings, whatever the pathogen.
Studies show that you need to rest when in you have COVID to reduce your risk of Long COVID. The CDC shortening their COVID isolation guidelines will put people at greater risk of Long COVID.

Recent donations to O’Neill Burke’s campaign include $3,000 from Gary Gerst, a founder of one of the world’s largest real estate services firms. Gerst has also helped fund and lead NumbersUSA, an anti-#immigration group with roots that @splcenter describes as white nationalist.

COVID advocacy groups are doing an incredible job on extremely limited resources pushing back on potential changes to the CDC's COVID isolation guidelines. But where are the labor unions? Forcing people back to work when they are sick is a critical labor issue.
Doctor on possible revision to CDC's COVID guidelines: "Frankly, there's been no change in the science. This is about what corporate America wants." @larazjmd @PeoplesCDC
The CDC changing #covid19 isolation guidance based on public opinion instead of science would likely signal the end of widespread testing. Without clear guidance to isolate, most would wrongly assume they don't need to get tested, resulting in limited treatment and a dangerous…
