I was diagnosed with COVID 3 days after my first shot. CDC guidance is

"Vaccination of people with known current SARS-CoV-2 infection should be deferred until the person has recovered from the acute illness (if the person had symptoms) and they have met criteria to discontinue isolation. This recommendation applies to people who experience SARS-CoV-2 infection before receiving any vaccine dose and those who experience SARS-CoV-2 infection after the first dose of an mRNA vaccine but before receipt of the second dose."

I am now 17 days past diagnosis, I have no symptoms any more and thus I am beyond the 10 day isolation period. I am supposed to get my second dose tomorrow and my doctor is telling me I need to wait 90 days and start all over again. He is directly contradicting the current CDC guidance and parroting the old guidance.

Any thoughts?
