insists that new coronavirus guidance on mask-wearing is solely based on science and not the result of political pressure.The CDC issued new guidance last week that says people who are fully vaccinated can stop wearing masks, both indoors and outdoors.
The announcement came just one day after Walensky spoke in Congress and defended the stance that masks were necessary.Walensky told "FOX News Sunday" host Chris Wallace that the CDC has always followed "evolving data" on the pandemic."It certainly would have been easier if this science had evolved a week earlier and I didn’t have to go to Congress making this statement," Walensky said.
