New: CDC says revised guidance on airborne coronavirus transmission posted in error
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said Monday that revised guidance quietly posted on Friday that said airborne transmission was thought to be the main way the virus spreads was "posted in error." The revised guidance has now been removed from the CDC's web site. "CDC is currently updating its recommendations regarding airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19)," the CDC wrote. "Once this process has been completed, the update language will be posted." The CDC guidance on the coronavirus is now the same as it was before the revisions. Hill
