How would you know if you don't read it?
Recommendations are based upon the situation. If the situation changes, the recommendation may change accordingly. In the military, you might get what's called a "frago" if the situation changes. That's doesn't mean the CO flip flopped. If you see a warning sign for a school zone, you will need to adjust your speed based upon the situation. That doesn't mean the State Highway Patrol flip flopped on the speed limit.
Your original point was we can't get herd immunity to Covid because of colds and the flu after I wrote we won't get herd immunity to Covid with a vaccination rate of 50-60% nationally.
That's like me stating the Bengals can't win the Super Bowl if they don't make the playoffs and you responding the Bengals can't win the Super Bowl because the have never won the World Series. No. Those are two different situations. I've explained why your reasoning is incorrect multiple times and provided sources for you to independently confirm for yourself what I'm telling you.
Last week the CDC announced the delta Covid variant is as contagious as chicken pox.
https://emedicine.medscape.com/article/1131785-overview#a5
After the chickenpox vaccine was introduced the incidence of chickenpox decreased by approximately 90%.
https://www.hhs.gov/immunization/diseases/chickenpox/index.html
The chickenpox vaccine series has an efficacy of over 90%.
https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/pubs/pinkbook/varicella.html
Ninety-one percent of children have received one dose of the chickenpox vaccine in 2007. Eight-five percent of children were fully vaccinated for chickenpox in 2016.
Did the chickenpox vaccine get rid of all herpes viruses? No.
Did the chicken pox vaccine eradicate chickenpox? No.
Do we have herd immunity to chickenpox?
https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapediatrics/article-abstract/190491
Yes.
So on one had I have public health experts from the first, largest, and #1 ranked public health program since 1994 in the US stating we can achieve herd immunity to Covid. While on the other hand I have someone who doesn't even know what a vaccine is telling me we can't based upon faulty reasoning. Who do you think is a credible source of information?
Thus the CDC's new recommendations or what some call a "flip flop."
Can you give me an example of a virus killing 600K people in a year which turned into a common cold?
can you give me an example of another bioengineered weapon escaping a lab?
