The original title of this article was called "CDC Weighs Weakening Infection Safety Precautions For Healthcare Workers". Then they changed the title a few hours after the article posted.

It still doesn't minimize the egregious action by #HICPAC, an advisory committee at the #CDC, currently considering WEAKENING infection safety protocols for healthcare workers during an airborne virus pandemic.

I went to three in-person conferences this summer. All asked attendees to COVID test every other day.

The first "encouraged" masks, and had a COVID outbreak.

The second "encouraged" masks, and had 10 percent positivity by the second to last day, at which point they started requiring masks.

The third REQUIRED masks indoors, and had zero positive COVID tests.
