I think the change in guidelines has more to do with the changing public sentiment than it has to do with science. Even some of the well-known hosts of the opinion programs on the cable news channels are questioning why masks are required. Changing the guidelines, IMO, demonstrates the manipulation the CDC has been conducting on the populace. Think about it. What has changed since November that makes fully vaccinated folks safe today but not back then? If the vaccines are effective (and I believe they are) there's no reason for anyone fully vaccinated to wear a mask at all.

More people are vaccinated. That could be the reason for the new guidance. I think so. We aren't at herd immunity yet so that is the reason why only vaccinated people can take the masks off safely. Those who are not vaccinated yet act like they are by not wearing masks, are more vulnerable to contracting Covid. Good luck to those folks who are not protected.
