      Three things changed between Nov 21 and Mar 22: Omicron rendered superspreaders more likely, and vaccines less effective (but still usually life-saving), and finally Dems decided they needed a win on COVID before the midterms.

        The administration and CDC's protocol shifts put the third political change over the scientific changes, which pointed in the opposite direction.

          Walensky, Pelosi, Biden, and Psaki are motivated by the same "COVID is over" bravado now that infected (metaphorically and literally) the Trump White House in fall 2020.

            Either way, politicians will risk their own lives and sacrifice those of others for perceived political gain.

              The virus doesn't care about "optics." It just keeps replicating.

                But political apologists like Leana Wen will try to convince us that superspreaders are now a sophisticated personal choice. @DrLeanaWen/1512167872264560654?t=7fGym0RSaEuf7l9f-eni-A&s=19
