So much for the social distancing Bull Hockey. “Their definition of it is 15 minutes of contact within a set period of time, within six feet,” Psaki responded, referring to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention definition of “close contact.” “It did not meet that bar.”

Funny thing is she is actually closer to the truth then what they have been saying these last two years. When this Covid nonsense started back in early 2020 they did say it was 15 minutes of close contact. My company used that guideline at least at first. Then "they" dropped the time limit otherwise they couldnt justify shutting down all the small businesses and masking everyone. And of course Fraudchi flipped on mask use as well. Obviously kissing someone etc doesnt apply but the 15 minute guideline was for casual contact like walking past someone etc

White House Says Pelosi’s Embrace and Kiss of Joe Biden Was Not “Close Contact” Officially, close contact means something like being within a few feet for someone a total of 15 minutes over a six-hour span, or something like that. You won't catch covid unless you pick up a high enough concentration or "load," even if you get close to an infected person for a minute or two. The real danger zone is getting into a car or other small, closed space (a sauna, restroom, exam room) where an infected person has been breathing for many minutes and the air is saturated with covid -- THEN it's possible, or even inevitable, that a few breaths will intake enough of a load to cause trouble. Basically, stay out of small, enclosed, or poorly ventilated spaces where strangers have been, and don't spend several minutes within arm's reach of someone whose covid status is unknown to you, especially in a small, poorly ventilated space.
