The cdc says that people that do not have symptoms dont need testing. Local researchers say that the policy goes against good science. It is not a good idea. I dont think it is a good idea. Is entirely bizarre, in the fact that it undercuts our very basic tenants of how we control and infectious disease. The department of health and Human Services managing the cdc says the changes come after a meeting with the white house. They did not say why the changes happening. Critics say the changes are particularly alarming because the cdc has said all along that 40 percent of people that contract for coronavirus do not show any symptoms. 100 School Districts have been given waivers to resume in class instruction.
