The CDC is moving goalposts again, changing the definition of ‘fully vaccinated' to include a third shot.
[Federalist] In its recently updated guidance on exposure to COVID-19, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) treats double jabbed individuals that have not received a booster shot the same as unvaccinated ones.

“For people who are unvaccinated or are more than six months out from their second mRNA dose (or more than 2 months after the J&J vaccine) and not yet boosted, CDC now recommends quarantine for 5 days followed by strict mask use for an additional 5 days,” the updated guidance reads. “Alternatively, if a 5-day quarantine is not feasible, it is imperative that an exposed person wear a well-fitting mask at all times when around others for 10 days after exposure. Individuals who have received their booster shot do not need to quarantine following an exposure, but should wear a mask for 10 days after the exposure.”

The move to change the definition of “fully vaccinated” by the federal health agency was predicted by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis last month. During a press conference in Tallahassee, the Republican governor told attendees that “those individuals who have gone through a normal vaccination series for COVID …will be determined to be unvaccinated very soon.”

“They will do that – they are gonna tell you: ‘you’re unvaccinated and you have to get a booster,'” he said, adding that those who choose not to get a booster “could potentially face loss of employment or other types of penalties.”

The comments sparked outcry from legacy media fact-checkers, who were quick to label the governor’s prediction as false. Writing in The Independent, Andrew Feinberg penned an article titled “Fact Check: DeSantis falsely claims vaccinated citizens without boosters could be declared unvaccinated and lose their jobs,” in which he claims that DeSantis was “lying about the possibility that Covid-19 boosters will be used to force people out of their jobs.”

“Centers for Disease Control Director Rochelle Walensky has repeatedly denied that the Biden administration plans to consider people who do not get boosters to be unvaccinated.” he wrote.

Fauci says child COVID-19 hospitalizations are overblown

[WashingtonExaminer] Dr. Anthony Fauci says statistics for hospitalizations among children with COVID-19 are getting overblown because many young patients are being admitted with unrelated ailments before they test positive.

#2 Moving Goalposts for Fun (and Profit), CDC Terminology edition:

CDC, Pre-2015: Vaccination = the injection of a killed or weakened infectious organism in order to prevent the disease.

CDC, 2015-2021: Vaccination = the act of introducing a vaccine into the body in order to produce immunity to a specific disease

CDC, September 2021: Vaccination = the act of introducing a vaccine into the body in order to produce protection from a specific disease

#3 At this point, a full vaxx card probably just means you are going to be braced by the FBI to find out if it's real.

So, not much protection.

#4 They'll be issuing vac cards like the punch cards I get at my oil change place - once you get six you get the next one free.
