Doesn’t it seem odd that the CDC’s would relax quarantine restrictions during record case reports and a substantial winter wave? At least in this audience we can all agree that it makes no sense from a science perspective. In fact, the CDC has already taken a lot of heat for the move, even from corporate media and its experts. But the indignant experts in Altanta are not backing down. So, why not?

I read a post over the weekend, where someone stated that he’d been laid off for being uninjected, but when the CMS Mandate (in the U.S.) was stayed, he got hired back as an independent contractor. Not only that but last week his boss offered him double pay if he’d take extra shifts. Why, well according to the writer it’s because his fully injected co-workers are largely out sick.

The post also laid out a very interesting point, since Omicron prefers the injected, had the CDC stuck with its original 14-day quarantine, employers who followed the guidance and enforced vaccine mandates could have most of their workforce out for up to 18 days (three weeks plus two weekend days on each side). That could put a lot of folks out of business, or in the uncomfortable position of having to hire back their Un-injected workers at huge premiums.

Now that wouldn’t be good for business or the “narrative!”

So, it’s highly probable that the CDC was NOT responding to the Delta Airlines letter or to the NFL (both facing issues due to injected workers testing positive), but instead was trying to avoid a wholesale, nationwide disaster where the CDC would ultimately be the one who got blamed. So, like any “principled” entity they just changed the rules, again. Boy it’s sure nice when you’re completely unaccountable and can change the rules whenever you want.

Nice and convenient, right Mr. Prime Minister?
