He said hospitals aren’t doing enough to prevent transmission, allowing visitors and staff to wear surgical masks rather than more protective N-95 masks. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention hasn’t recommended that all health care workers and visitors wear N-95s at all times. Despite the Omicron-related spike, U.S. ’t decided whether to suggest hospitals revamp their infection control measures, three officials told POLITICO. The figures are preliminary, and CDC officials are investigating what caused the increase, said two of the officials, who were granted anonymity because they weren’t authorized to speak publicly about internal discussions. One potential factor, several public health experts said, is the CDC’s decision in December to allow health workers who had tested positive for Covid to return without first isolating or testing to ensure they were no longer infectious. However, several public health experts also said that decision likely had minimal impact because workers wear masks and ideally higher grade N-95s. A CDC spokesperson declined to comment on whether the agency’s decision played a role.
