Democratic California Congressman Eric Swalwell said Saturday that he agrees there should likely be a nationwide mask mandate amidst the coronavirus pandemic.
In an interview on Cavuto LIVE with host Neil Cavuto, Swalwell noted case and hospitalization rates in his home state like much of the South are increasing at an alarming rate following reopening phases.
Well, you know, we are seeing about a 56 percent increase in hospitalizations in California. In my area, about 200 cases each day in Alameda County one of the largest counties in Northern California, he stated. And, its not that were increasing the testing. Of course, were increasing the testing The rate of people testing positive is going up, and thats whats most concerning.
Swalwell noted that while there is a marked increase in infections of Americas youth, the risk is much higher when you put young people with their parents or grandparents over a holiday weekend. [ ]
The most important [thing] is to follow the science. And, [in] the calls Ive been on with the governor [he says that] hes going to let the science dictate this, Swalwell explained. And, you saw a number of counties open up in California for in-room dining, for bars, for hair salons and nail salons, and then have had to roll it back. And so, we really are evolving, Neil.
The best way to combat the spread, according to Swalwell, is masking up.
And, if we wear a mask and then keep investing in the testing, tracing, and treatment, we can come out of this, he told Cavuto.

Yeah. From each other's bad breath. Nothing more.
If a state has a mask requirement and people aren’t obeying it, why does he think they’ll obey a Federal rule?
Strong enough to protect from your farts?
The whole point is to find out who wont obey it and make them public enemies who can be silenced or eliminated.
Surveys have indicated that conservatives and Trump supporters are much less likely to voluntarily wear a gag..I mean, a mask...than others.
Must keep the Corona paranoia as high as possible until the election to discourage voting in person at the polls.
Vote-by-mail corruption is a key element to steal the election for ol’ Sniffer Joe and his handlers.
A cloth mask is about as effective at stopping the virus as a chain link fence is in stopping a dust storm..
Masks are nothing but a sign of your obedience to tyranny..
This uptick in infections was all caused by protests and riots. Because people thought it was ok to protest and riot in close proximity, they also did not practice social distance while they were in between protests during daily activity.
I absolutely insist that Eric Swalwell wear a mask at all times.
This is the same totalitarian fascist who suggested that law-abiding firearms owners could be ‘nuked’ by the federal government if need be. I don’t take anything he says as valid.
That fartin’ machine, Swalwell. Yea, I’ll wear a mask.
Eric won’t be able to Swallowell if he has a mask on.
Whats he gonna do if we dont agree - fart at us?
It should be a mandate that Fartwell wear a mask on his cracker ass, and a gag in his mouth 24 hours a day.
Hideous dude’s got quite the maw. Looks like he gargles with golf balls.
Why don’t these central planners consider ways to maintain our own immune systems and SUGGESTING things to improve that? Are cloth face masks more or less effective than a healthy immune system?
There’s no mask strong enough to protect anyone from the fart he ripped last November on live television.
Swalwell need to wear this mask with a ball gag underneath.
like i would ever listen to ES, such a liar.
Swalwell need to wear this mask with a ball gag underneath.
