Earlier this week Centers for Disease Control Director Rochelle Walensky announced new federal guidelines for managing the spread of Wuhan coronavirus.
Reversing recent guidance from May, Walensky said vaccinated individuals in areas of what the agency considers 'high spread" of the Delta variant should where masks indoors. She also announced children should be masked in schools.

But some digging and and an admission from Dr. Anthony Fauci indicate the latest mask guidance for vaccinated individuals is based on junk science.
Here’s the truth America:

The “game changer” data the CDC used for the mask mandate is from a single study from India.
The study was rejected in peer review.

Even worse, the study followed healthcare workers vaccinated with a vaccine not allowed in the US. pic.twitter.com/lflItnHFz6

Does the Administration have any more data to show us?

No, according to the latest from STAT pic.twitter.com/JZAPa2M9Qg
UPDATE: I took the time to read the India study. It's based on 100 (??) healthcare workers in India using a vaccine not approved in the U.S.

EVEN WORSE, the study doesn't even say what they claimed. It compares viral loads between variants, not against unvaccinated. pic.twitter.com/zOTW9M4wi2
No biggie, just the CDC and NIH admitting they have no evidence of the recommendation they're making regarding masking the vaccinated pic.twitter.com/3qAqzfiVYv

Further, the Delta variant is already tapering off.

SCOTT GOTTLIEB: “I think we’re further into this Delta wave than we’re picking up … I think, you know, in another 2 or 3 weeks we’ll be through this. This new [masking] guidance will have a negligible impact on it.” pic.twitter.com/8IOFuFuUAP
