Guidance from the CDC outlined ways for communities to decide when to shut down during future flareups of COVID-19. The AP has obtained additional details about the guidance, which was shelved by the Trump administration.
Senators and staff listen to Dr. Robert Redfield, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, speak remotely during a virtual Senate Committee for Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions hearing, Tuesday, May 12, 2020 on Capitol Hill in Washington.
By contrast, the organizational tool created by the CDC advocates for a coordinated national response to give community leaders step-by-step instructions to “help Americans re-enter civic life,” with the idea that there would be resurgences of the virus and lots of customization needed. The White House said last week that the document was a draft and not ready for release.
“Many different places are considering how to safely develop return-to-work procedures. Having more guidance on that earlier on might have been more reassuring to people. And it might have have prevented some cases,” Morse said. One of many differences, however, is advice for when communities should allow for the resumption of nonessential travel.
