I was working as a contact tracer during the pandemic. I was in a supervisor position, so I’d be on calls with the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH), who would relay to us what the CDC’s current guidance was. And when the 5 Day Isolation thing came out, all of us asked “but is it safe? Is there any guidance that suggests people are less likely to infect others?” Their answer was “no, but businesses need workers, and this is about people getting back to work faster.”
I know a lot of people think that the 5 Day Isolation must have come about because of some new scientific discovery that 10 days was too long, or new strains don’t last as long, and blatantly no. THIS DECISION WAS NEVER MADE TO KEEP YOU SAFE. THIS DECISION HAS ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT MONEY.
so much is going on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it’s too much!!!!!!!!!!!!! i just want to sleep in the forest for 190 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i’m tired leave me alone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
