> I personally follow the CDC guidelines
I don't believe you. Do you use a food thermometer when cooking food? Do you make sure to cook eggs until the yoke is firm? If you're a woman, do you make sure you never have more than 1 (alcoholic) drink in a particular day? Do you never eat rare steak?
People ignore almost everything the CDC says in their regular lives as the CDC is completely optimizing for health, not quality of life.
