CDC invites infectious Covid patients to go vote, anyway.

But wear a mask, wash yor hands and socially distance.   

https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/daily-life-coping/going-out/voting-tips.html

"Voters have the right to vote, regardless of whether they are sick or in quarantine.

Voters who are sick or in quarantine should take steps to protect poll workers and other voters. This includes wearing a mask, staying at least 6 feet away from others, and washing your hands or using hand sanitizer before and after voting. You should also let poll workers know that you are sick or in quarantine when you arrive at the polling location. Check with local authorities for any additional guidance."

Letting poll workers know will probably cause a bit of a stir, and maybe send some other prospective voters out the door.  Wonder why CDC felt the need to create this web page?
