"NBC News, citing unnamed officials aware of the decision, reported it comes after new data suggests vaccinated individuals could have higher levels of virus and infect others amid the surge of cases driven by the delta variant of the coronavirus," the USA Today reported in a passage that was later scrubbed from an article.
"VACCINATED individuals could have higher levels of virus and infect others amid the surge of cases driven by the delta variant" pic.
The new headline from the USA Today drops the reference to NBC News, but nonetheless corroborates the news: "CDC says vaccinated people may transmit virus, recommends masks indoors."
"CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky said new data shows the delta variant, which accounts for more than 80% of the new infections in the U.S., behaves 'uniquely differently' from its predecessors and could make vaccinated people infectious," the article notes.
"Information on the delta variant from several states and other countries indicates that in rare occasions some vaccinated people infected with the delta variant after vaccination may be contagious and spread the virus to others," Walensky said in announcing new guidance, which reverses a CDC recommendation in May. "This new science is worrisome and unfortunately warrants an update to our recommendation."
NBC News reported on the CDC guidance reversal on Monday.
"The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended Tuesday that fully vaccinated people begin wearing masks indoors again in places with high Covid-19 transmission rates," NBC News reported.
