Regardless of what CDC says, you really should try to obtain an antigen test (I know- easier said than done) and confirm it’s negative prior to leaving isolation and quarantine. There’s not a scientist or doctor I’ve met yet who wouldn’t do this for themselves/ their family. twitter.com/gayle/status/1…

Many who are defending/championing this policy on TV have told me privately if it were their family/ workplace, they would want a “test out” of isolation policy. This isn’t about the best science – it’s a compromise to keep the economy open in the face of inadequate tests.

To offer solutions instead of just criticism – the Director could come out and say if you can get an antigen test that is the preferred way to end isolation. If you can’t get an antigen test then you can end isolation early ONLY if you are committed to strict mask wearing.

To put a finer point on it, anyone defending this new guidance should be asked directly, would you let your unvaxxed under 5 year old or immune compromised relative attend a gathering where people who tested positive 5 days ago- but wore cloth masks- were in close proximity.

Because at the end of the day, that’s what this new guidance (without a test out option, AND without any recommendation for N95s/ KN95s) is saying is okay. And I can’t find a single health professional who’d accept that as okay for their family.

It really seems like the “new advice” was based more on the availability of tests than on science.
