Won't we know in the next few months if the folks who were in trails later last year are still being protected?

That’s my hospitals rule. You aren’t supposed to reuse them under normal circumstances but we aren’t in normal times.

We use them when we specifically need to look in someone's mouth or nose, where there's a high probability of exposure to a denser cloud of respiratory secretions.

Did you join a class action suit last year when they set up check points going into Florida?

The one difference though, no one was ever BANNED from entering Florida. They just had to quarantine.
This report that came out (which we now know was false) was saying people would actually be banned from entering the state.

Or as I said many pages ago when I speculated that it was based on the data from phase 3 and would expand in time.I feel like that's what my post said?
While the chosen duration excludes those who are in the vanguard of being vaccinated ( ie the trials) since they are what is used to determine the duration of the efficacy. For example: I am 5 months post second shot soon. When they expand it at a later date, I will be outside that window too.
To answer the specific question about phase 3 participants. Yes their next appointment should occur in March or April. Plus they have the weekly diary data. So in a few months I expect the CDC to revise the duration limit to 6 months.

It likely will. We are called back for up to 2 years and I am still doing a weekly diary. I'm about 4.5 months post 2nd shot.

What is it with people being so snide? Those of us who choose to wear two masks don’t deserve sarcasm or derision.

What report said that all people would be banned from entering the state?
The Constitution's Commerce Clause has given Congress a lot of power in regulating interstate travel. If they create a law regarding interstate travel and give the President or one of the Federal agencies the authority to regulate and enforce whatever they enacted, then, theoretically, the President or an Agency can regulate interstate travel within the parameters of that Act, unless SCOTUS overrules all or part of that act as an overreach.
Whether there is such an Act that grants the Federal government such powers to ban travel to/from hotspot states that SCOTUS is OK with and the Biden administration wants to enact... that's all debatable.
However, I'd like to point out that the **idea** of banning interstate travel (or at least imposing onerous two week quarantines without proof they were infected) was the brainchild of one Governor DeSantis as he tried to keep out people from the Tri-State area from Florida.
It's strange he doesn't like the idea of the Federal government picking up his worthy ideas!!!

Who are the 'they'? And what exactly was being banned?

Highway Patrol only slowed travel while they advised quarantine and took information to (supposedly) confirm that travelers from hotspots were actually following quarantine guidelines. I never heard of anyone actually being turned away.
Hawaii did the same thing until about October, when they carved out a 72 hour testing exemption. The courts found that it was legal for a state to quarantine travelers provided that they applied the rules to everyone, and did not exempt their own residents.
Federal travel bans are currently prohibited by a supreme court ruling from a while back.
It is a respiratory virus. It will wind up everywhere - it has even turned up in Antarctica. Ultimately, if you live long enough, you will get it unless you are vaccinated against it.
I would never advocate for a ban, but I have to admit that the thought of kicking out the people with Ohio tags who drive 30 mph on the Sunshine Skyway so they can take a picture of the sunset on the bay has a certain appeal...

The reason is to drive slow in the left lane in front of me...

Pretty much all the bloggers yesterday used the word "banned" in their stories.
That's where everyone got it from.
I was never prevented from visiting Florida. On the otherhand because my wife was still working she would have had to quarantine for 2 weeks upon her return to work if we came back, so we didn't go. In any case the existing travel restrictions for coming back from Florida are 10 cases per 100,000 average over the past week. Cases in Florida are trending down and hopefully by the end of March will be less than the 10 per hundred thousand and so there will be no bans in April. Those are decisions that are made State by State and not aimed at one State that currently ranks 15th in the US with 36 cases per 100,000 while NY and New Jersey are 44 and 43 respectively. Why not ban travel to areas controlled by Cuomo and Murphy with highers cases than Florida.
