Fauci says new guidance might come soon for people who have been fully vaccinated for Covid-19

CNN  

CNN — As of now, even if you have been fully vaccinated for Covid-19, the advice from health officials is to keep wearing your mask, keep social distancing and keep away from get-togethers. “I think once we have more sequencing that’s happening, we’ll have a better idea as to how many variants there are and what proportion are out there.” Walensky said during the briefing that she was “reluctant” to provide an estimate of how many coronavirus variant cases there could be based on the current data. “The decline in new cases three weeks after the first dose, compared to facilities having vaccine clinics later, is encouraging and signals that the vaccine may decrease the spread of COVID, a finding not shown in the trials,” said Dr. David Gifford, chief medical officer for AHCA/NCAL. “If verified with additional data, this could expedite the reopening of long term care facilities to visitors, which is vital to residents’ health and well-being,” he said. Dr. Scott Gottlieb, former FDA commissioner, told CBS that when it comes to reopening schools, “the prerequisite is putting in place mitigation steps … “ He noted that when people wore masks and stayed socially distant, there was “very little transmission within the classroom.” And while it would be good to prioritize teachers for vaccines, he said, “I don’t think it’s necessarily a prerequisite.
