Maybe you can explain this to me, the other day Nancy Pelosi tested positive for Covid. She had been in close contact with President Biden, for longer than 15 minutes. But the CDC says that she is NOT considered a "contact"?
Do they just keep moving the goal posts on Covid? Or is it because President Biden has been vaccinated? But so has Nancy Pelosi.
Nancy Pelosi tests positive for Covid but is asymptomatic

Excerpts:
The White House said Thursday that Biden "is not considered a close contact" of Pelosi's, according to guidelines of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"The president saw Speaker Pelosi at White House events and had brief interactions over the course of the last two days," the White House said in a statement. "Last night as a part of his regular testing cadence, the president tested negative. He will continue to be tested regularly. The president wishes Speaker Pelosi a speedy recovery."
The White House has been following the CDC's guideline people who are within 6 feet of an infected person for 15 minutes are close contacts....
...Biden, who had a second Covid booster shot last week, has been attending large gatherings indoors without masks for several weeks, often embracing other attendees. He gave Pelosi a hug and a kiss on the cheek at an event Tuesday at the White House.
