In an in-person interview last month, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky told ABC News that the COVID-19 crisis was far from over. The best way to end the pandemic, Walensky insisted, is to “lean in” to the same public health strategies that the CDC has been recommending for nearly two years now: masking, social distancing, and vaccinating.
The CDC also recommends avoiding large crowds and poorly ventilated indoor spaces, and encourages frequent self-testing for COVID-19 whether or not you have any symptoms, washing your hands often, covering your coughs and sneezes, cleaning and disinfecting high-touch surfaces, and monitoring yourself for fever and other symptoms daily.
