On May 13, 2021, the CDC once again updated its guidance (
here and
here), significantly relaxing its standards for fully
vaccinated individuals. "Fully vaccinated individuals"
means that two weeks or more have passed since the person received
either the second dose of a two-dose COVID-19 vaccine or one dose
of a single-dose vaccine. Immunocompromised people, even if fully
vaccinated, should consult their healthcare providers about the
applicability of this new guidance.
The updated guidance provides that fully vaccinated individuals
can:
- Resume activities they engaged in prior to the pandemic without
wearing a mask or physically distancing, except where required by
federal, state, local, tribal, or territorial laws, rules, and
regulations, including local business and workplace guidance.
