Dr. Deborah Birx: Eye shields can prevent people from spreading coronavirus

Dr. Deborah Birx, the White House coronavirus response coordinator, on Thursday said face shields that block people from touching their eyes can be useful in helping prevent the spread of the coronavirus.

“Here’s the thing about the face shield in addition to the mask: the mask is to protect others,” Dr. Birx said on “Fox & Friends.” “The thing about the face shields - we think that that could protect the individuals and that it would decrease the ability for them to touch their eyes and spread [the] virus as well as those droplets coming towards them.”

Dr. Anthony Fauci of the National Institutes of Health said this week that if people have goggles or eye shields, they should use them.

Love the redneck clip! Shared it the first time I saw it. Now had to do it again. I was just in a heated conversation with relative about masks. Sheesh. Didn’t go well. Needed the reminder of funny stuff! :) Thanks!

Nope.. he said mask compliance is patriotic. Granted he was visiting the sick in a mil hosp. But he sure got every biz on board quickly.

My GF is flying out tomorrow, six hours to visit her son. She’s going to wear a mask and face shield the entire travel time.

I didn’t say anything. Kept my mouf shut.

How about a 1950’s sci fi theater space suit?

or a Babylon 5 Vorlon encounter suit. (or is that cultural appropriation)

What sort of an authoritarian bot have they made you into?

Did I say anywhere in my post that touching your face should be banned? No, just that it wasn't a good idea. In the same way that spending more than you earn isn't illegal but also not a great idea. You might want to think before you post next time FRiend.

Saw this coming back in May. Besides doing nothing to “stop the spread”, forced face diaper wearing and anti-social distancing are becoming less effective in stalling economic recovery, so the America/American-hating Democrat/Leftists have to take things up another notch with forced eye diapers. Next it will be forced hand diapers (gloves) then God knows what else. And all the while, frightened-out-of-what’s-left-of-their-effin’-minds American women and American scared little b!tches (i.e., what many American “men” have devolved into over the past four months) will cower and dutifully fall in line with each new ineffective, tyrannical mandate ... all of which is being done in an effort to “disallow” America citizens from re-electing Trump. This is just so obviously a significant part of the America/American-hating Democrat/Left’s plan to destroy our Republic and to shred what remains of our Constitution.
