Despite efforts from the Biden administration, just under half of the U.S. population is vaccinated at this point. With Delta now being the primary variant of new cases in the country and high transmissions of COVID-19 happening yet again, experts say it’s time to restore some restrictions.
CNN medical analyst Dr. Jonathan Reiner, professor of medicine and surgery at George Washington University, spoke with CNN’s Fredricka Whitfield about the rise in COVID-19 cases. According to Reiner and other experts, unvaccinated people shouldn’t go into bars and restaurants.
“What I would say bluntly is: If you are not vaccinated right now in the United States, you should not go into a bar, you should probably not eat at a restaurant. You are at great risk of becoming infected,” Reiner told CNN.
According to CDC, only 49.1% of people living in the U.S. are vaccinated. People who are unvaccinated are reportedly the primary group hospitalized or worse — dying.
In the last week alone, COVID-19 surged in 48 states, reportedly increasing cases by at least 10% from the week prior. Though in 34 of those states, cases actually increased by over 50% from the previous week, Johns Hopkins University reports.
The surge is reportedly caused by the Delta variant being easily more transmissible and hence, is the new dominant strain in the U.S.
Associated Press reported in response to the national rise in COVID-19 cases, the CDC is expected to recommend everyone — not just unvaccinated individuals — mask up in places around the U.S. where COVID-19 is surging later Tuesday. Though, in crowded indoor or enclosed spaces mask-wearing has remained required for the most part. These spaces include planes, buses, prisons, and hospitals.
Reiner recommended two options to CNN in response to the surge: shut down businesses again or begin requiring mask-wearing once more. Economically and socially, shutting down businesses is seemingly not the popular choice.
“The only way to get the unvaccinated to mask up is to mask everyone up,” Reiner told CNN.
In response to the Delta variant and surging cases, a few cities around the U.S. reportedly have already instituted new mask-wearing restrictions.
So the unvaccinated get to tell the vaccinated: "SUCKERS!" ???
Been going as often as I can since the start.
Still can’t catch it.
We need a LOT more of this....
Anti-mask Huntington Beach restaurant says it will only serve unvaccinated diner
Still can’t catch it.
And, yet....you probably have antibodies.
I bet almost everyone does.
Stop this hooey.
Piss off, jackass.
What else can you expect from a talking orifice on Commie News Network?
The wife and I go out to restaurants, shopping in Supermarkets, attend gatherings with friends, etc...and neither of us has had so much as a cold. Our youngest son who lives with us and attends a local state university drives for Uber and goes to gaming events regularly with his friends. He has caught a cold recently and recovered completely in a couple of weeks.
Neither I nor my wife or our son wears masks. We do not Social Distance or any other “recommended” by the CDC protocols. We live our lives as free people. And, we intend to continue to do so.
And Cheney’s former doctor...
Such a bad article.
The 49% vaccinated figure does not include those who have had a single dose already. Nor is there mention of the much higher vaccination rate for the elderly. Nor is there mention of the fact that children under a certain age are not eligible for the vaccine.
Worst of all, the CNN doctor says nothing about the previously infected unvaccinated cohort who there is no reason to think are in any significant danger.
Vaccine is a defined term in law and under CDC and FDA standards. A vaccine has to stimulate an immunity in the person receiving it. And it must also disrupt transmission. That’s not what this is. Even the drug manufacturers admit the jab or its mRNA does not stop transmission.
The jab is a treatment, but if it’s discussed as a treatment it would not get the sympathetic ear of public health officials because people would ask what other treatments there are. And alternative treatments would hamper FDA’s ability to issue emergency approval of the jabs as a vaccine.
Defining the narrative with the term vaccine is a sucker punch to open and free discourse. “Vaccine” throws the discussion into one of pro/con vaccine. The jab is a mechanical device in the form of a very small packet of technology inserted intoe the human system to activate the cell to become a pathogenetic spike protein manufacturing site.
No basis exists to stipulate this is a vaccine. Simply put, this is a chemical pathogen device meant to unleash chemical pathogen production within a cell. It’s a medical device, not a drug. The jab is not a living or biological system, but rather a physical technology that just happens to come in the size of a molecular package.
The so called “experts” can f&ck right off.
How funny. And it’s hard to prove a negative!
They must be stacking bodies everywhere!
His specialty is interventional cardiology. He has no particular expertise in virology or infectious diseases.
I was in a restaurant last weekend. I think I’ll stop at a bar on the way home tomorrow. Eff so-called “experts.” Shills for the un-American and anti-American left.
The point of saying the jabbed can take off the mask was to prove it worked. By suggesting you need a mask even if fully jabbed, you have just proven the skeptics right.
Idiots. Then again this is from CNN.
Every day I win, and CNN loses. They can huff and puff all they want, it’s just Tuesday for me.
thanks for giving 2 cents experts;
didn’t know you cared.

The Vaccines Do Not Diagnose, Treat or Prevent SARS-CoV-2 or COVID-19
