What made them change the guidlines from 6 to 3 months?

When they changed the testing guidlines what was the basis?
Was it a combination of updated testing techniques or the realization that most people, 98% are positive by the time three months has passed?

Then don't you think the smart thing to do is write or call the CDC and ask?

This is a ongoing concern of most of us still waiting to find out our status. I was just curious if you remember when they changed what they said about why they did it...Just reassurance i guess, sorry teak.

What does that have to do with this forum? No one here works for the CDC nor do we have influence on the CDC decisions.
