NIH: Masks Still Needed After Vaccinations
2021-02-26
[Breitbart] On Wednesday’s broadcast of the Fox Business Network’s "Cavuto: Coast to Coast," NIH Director Dr. Francis Collins stated that even after people have been vaccinated, "we don’t know exactly whether it’s still possible for that person to carry the virus. It might be, and until we have better data, then masks are still important." And that on masks, "Even if we’re overdoing it, that’s fine. Better that than run the risk of infecting more people."
One mask, two masks, three masks, cloth, N-95, medical grade or Sonovia. All same?
Collins said, "[I]t is still entirely possible for people to be out there in public who are infected with this virus and don’t know it. And the only way we’re going to keep such individuals, and it might be any of us, from spreading this is if they’re careful about wearing that mask. It’s not about protecting themselves as much as it is protecting everybody from them. Even after vaccination, we don’t know exactly whether it’s still possible for that person to carry the virus. It might be, and until we have better data, then masks are still important. I know people are tired of them. I’m tired of them too. But, at the same time, it’s a simple measure. It’s a life-saving medical device. Just put it on. Even if we’re overdoing it, that’s fine. Better that than run the risk of infecting more people."
I don't want anybody to die either, Doc, but wouldn't lockdowns be even safer? Just until we have more data

Doc, why don't you get the data. Is there some reason masks are not recommended with the flu? Do masks cause more problems than they solve?

#4  ABC news just informed me that all those 2 dose shots out there are ta da! now single dose shots.

It also said the only way to get back to normal is to pass a $Trillion corporate bailout. Dafuk?

The bullying of the children is absolutely infuriating. 6 year olds should be running about and laughing, not cowed in the corner while mom buys stamps. Its Bullshit.

#2  Those pictures we see of the Oval Office where Biden and his handlers are all wearing masks when we know they've all been vaccinated make them all look like fools.

#1  There is an estimated $23 Billion in Covid-19 related products still on the store shelves.

Will the C-19 Virus remain in play until that inventory is depleted. Or will we have a NEW threat that will need the items?
