I have just finished watching the #StateOfTheUnion address, and it became clear about half way through why the mask guidance was changed by @CDCgov.
Beautiful speech, but also very sad in that one respect.

There is a “War on COVID-19”. It’s still raging on, but today there needed to be some sign that America has gained some ground in that war.
Sadly, that ground gained was the loss of mask guidance. Seen as a symbol of the fight, the shield was discarded.

There were many other things that I really liked about the planned COVID-19 response. The access to testing and medication. The access to respirators for vulnerable people… vaccination efforts, globally.
Improving access to healthcare and cutting insurance premiums…
…but unless America picks up the shield that has been dropped… COVID-19 will strike again, and it will land body blows.
