California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Wednesday said his state will disregard revised guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that insist people don’t necessarily need to receive tests if they come into contact with people carrying coronavirus.

“I don’t agree with the new CDC guidance. Period. Full stop,” Newsom said in a virtual news conference. “And it’s not the policy in the state of California. We will not be influenced by that change.”

The CDC controversially said in testing guidelines that people who come in close, extended contact with people who have COVID-19 do not “necessarily need a test” unless...

Gov. Cuomo also said Wednesday that New York State would ignore the revision. “I consider it political propaganda,” Cuomo told reporters.

Fauci Was In Surgery When New CDC Covid-19 Testing Guidelines Were Pushed—And Is ‘Concerned’ About Them

BREAKING

Elana Lyn Gross Forbes Staff

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s leading authority on infectious diseases, said he was undergoing surgery when the White House Task Force discussed the apparently politically driven decision to weaken the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommendations for who should be tested for the coronavirus—and is “concerned” and “worried” about what they say.


President Trump has repeatedly said that the country should scale back testing, complaining also that the number of infections in the U.S. is so high because of the number of tests conducted. However, Giroir denied any political influence in the decision, saying: “This was a product produced by the scientific and medical people that was discussed extensively at the task force.” (Which reportedly excluded Fauci.)
