In the same 24 hour news cycle the CDC announced the PCR test is faulty and they are once again recommending a mask mandate. They admitted PCR couldn’t distinguish between flu and covid, so all the data/conditions were wrong that the response was based on. There simply is no evidence to support recommending mask mandates again.

Is there a really good link for the PCR announcement?
Something I can point normies to, which is hard for them to easily dismiss?

Here's the original announcement from the CDC:
https://www.cdc.gov/csels/dls/locs/2021/07-21-2021-lab-alert-Changes_CDC_RT-PCR_SARS-CoV-2_Testing_1.html
It seems the claim is based on this statement:
"CDC encourages laboratories to consider adoption of a multiplexed method that can facilitate detection and differentiation of SARS-CoV-2 and influenza viruses."
From a first hand source that works in a private practice office, every time they sent out a PCR test for covid they also sent out a flu test to ensure that it was not the flu. This was to ensure that when the PCR came back positive and the flu negative, it would have been covid for sure.
