Dr. Birx calls protesters without masks ‘devastatingly worrisome’

Dr. Deborah Birx said protesters who gather without wearing masks and not practicing social distancing at rallies against states’ lockdown regulations are “devastatingly worrisome” because they could spread the coronavirus to at-risk family members.

Birx, a member of the White House coronavirus task force, was asked by host Chris Wallace on “Fox News Sunday” about crowds that gathered at Michigan’s state capitol from a “public health standpoint.”

“It’s devastatingly worrisome to me personally because if they go home and, in fact, their grandmother or their grandfather who has a co-morbid condition and they have a serious or a very or an unfortunate outcome, they will feel guilty for the rest of our lives,” she responded. “So we need to protect each other at the same time we’re voicing our discontent.”

Demonstrations against governors’ stay-at-home orders have ramped up in the past weeks as the economic effects caused by the pandemic worsen and more Americans apply for unemployment benefits.

Honest to gosh, WHY did Trump (or didn’t he) approve to have her and Fauci on board?

This really frustrates me.

>>His decision has caused folks here to ignore social distancing, masks, you name it. We’ll know this month whether the floodgates have been opened to a new spike in cases.

China sent infected people around the world to spread this disease, I could certainly picture the Left doing this in open cities to point fingers.

Just look at Cuomo killing old people in retirement communities.

Stalin killed millions of his own people to get compliance.

I honestly think both Dr. Birx and Fauci are never Trumpers actively working against him, and I think he knows it. That’s why he is pushing to reopen businesses and she is against it.

What's devastatingly worrisome to me is that we're still listening to this woman's opinion and advice.

She's a big Leftie and in on the "keep America down on her knees and destroy her" crowd.

Should suspend both Dr. Birx and Fauci’s salaries and make them eat rice and beans under house arrest. And see how fast they change their tune.

We live in America and, to date, we’re supposedly free to expression & our Bill of Rights is still allowed and protected by Donald J. Trump.

However, it is up to American patriots to ensure it stays that way. My father fought in WWII and the Korean War to ensure those rights.

Will we (Georgia) or will the numbers be adjusted to show that reopening is dangerous and has caused a surge in cases? All is political now and I don't trust the honesty of any numbers.

Numbers lag by several weeks.

Friday they used “Reopening announcements” to proclaim “highest ever deaths in a day!”

Propaganda

That navy blue scarf she had on this past (Friday I think it was) looked like a Winnie Mandela tire necklace

Even though I was only National Guard, I did have two overseas deployments. As such, I had a whole slew of shots in addition to the ones you get when you go to Basic training and AIT. I am a walking vaccine.

They had no lockdowns because they were doing well.

You said they’re doing well in spite of having no lockdowns.

Logic Department, please pick up the phone.
