| Americans don't need masks: President Biden |
Addressing a press conference at the White House Rose Garden on Thursday, President Biden said he was making the announcement following a recommendation from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). "This is a good day for the country," he said.
President Biden said the CDC has recommended that Americans go not only in public but also in public places or parties without masks. Vice President Kamala Harris was also present during the press conference. Both were not wearing masks.
The president's announcement paves the way for a return to normal life.
President Biden has called on all Americans over the age of 12 to vaccinate children over the age of 12, as it is important for their personal safety, and the vaccine is now available to every American. He said Americans no longer need to take the time to get vaccinated in some places.
He said that according to official statistics, 70% of Americans would have been vaccinated against polio by July 4. One hundred and seventeen million Americans, or 35 percent, have so far received both doses of the vaccine.
In response to a question, President Biden said that if two people have been vaccinated, they can shake hands and hug each other. "The Americans have come a long way," he said. He thanked the Americans for complying with the sanctions imposed by the epidemic. "We're rebuilding our economy, and America's great days are coming," he said.
Earlier, officials at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) also issued a guideline stating that people receiving both doses of the vaccine are not required to wear masks in public. ۔ The agency also recommended that factors such as the declining number of coronavirus patients in the country be taken into account. However, officials have warned that the guidelines could change if the epidemic intensifies again.
The number of new cases and deaths from the corona virus has dropped in the United States in the first eight months, according to official figures. As of January this year, 3,000 people were dying daily, which has now dropped to 600 in a single day.
However, according to the Washington Post, the easing of restrictions in the CDC's recommendations does not apply to air travel and health facilities such as hospitals and clinics. CDC officials also said the ban on wearing masks in some offices or factories would remain in place. Officials insisted that people with fewer exceptions should consult their doctors about not wearing masks.
CDC officials cited ample real-world evidence of the vaccine's effectiveness against the corona virus, which also suggests that the vaccine could cause a rapid spread of the corona virus. There is also protection in the types done.
According to the news agency Reuters, this is a sign of a big and symbolic change for the Americans affected by the epidemic. For the past year, millions of Americans have been living under global sanctions.
Criticism of the CDC has been growing in recent days due to its extreme caution. A large number of people complained that despite receiving both doses of the vaccine, they were not very active.
The new guidelines mean that Americans receiving both doses of the vaccine will now be able to return to normal life before the outbreak, which includes going to school and working in person, which began in March last year. Was Was over
Pediatrician Dr. Anthony Faustett also spoke to CNN in response to CDC guidelines on guidance shortcomings and President Joe Biden's address. He said he would not call the guidelines "premature" but would consider them an important step in the right direction. Dr. Fawcett said that much can be expected
