“Compression Only CPR (CCPR)” is an option (NOT a recommendation) for people who do not feel up to doing rescue breathing in an emergency.
CCPR is not yet taught INSTEAD of regular CPR, but as an option.
CCPR should not be done on anyone under about 12 years old, or if you did not see the victim go down. In those cases, they victim should get oxygen as much as possible.

The red cross has decided that you no longer have to do the mouth to mouth portion of CPR, but you still need to do the compressions. You should do 100 compressions without a minute.
