Further clarification 'coming very soon' to CDC Covid-19 isolation guidelines
CNN
Dr. Anthony Fauci said he anticipates "further clarification" on the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's updated guidelines to end the Covid-19 isolation period after just five days for people who are not exhibiting symptoms.
Asked by CNN's Dana Bash on Sunday whether the CDC's shorter Covid-19 isolation guidelines were driven by science or by societal and business pressures, President Joe Biden's chief medical adviser said, "There's no doubt that you do want to get people out into the workplace if they are without symptoms."
"In the second half of a 10-day period, which would normally be a 10-day isolation period, the likelihood of transmissibility is considerably lower," Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said on CNN's "State of the Union."
The judge who oversaw Donald Trump’s criminal hush money trial in New York on Friday informed the former president’s defense team and prosecutors with the Manhattan district attorney’s office that a comment was posted on the New York State Unified Court Systems’ public Facebook page last week by a poster who claimed to be a cousin of a juror, saying that Trump would be convicted.
