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.

When I worked with the CDC during the H1N1 crisis, the medical advice did not include a recommendation for masks. For what it’s worth, the WHO has recently said that the masks have no effect on this infection.

But, these masks are very useful to build and sustain the sense of fear amongst the public. It reminds the people that this pandemic will kill them (it won’t) and the only hope is to blindly follow the orders of the Administrative State. These masks have become a political weapon in the hands of those who wish to prevail over Trump.

She was career Army. Now a government bureaucrat. She wants the childlike life of living on a military case for all of America.

Go to hell Gates-loving lady.

Go to hell Birx. The brave woman below is not worrisome. You and your Ivy League CV thugs are.

If masks do work, why don’t we open up the country and all wear masks?

If masks don’t work why do I have to wear one?

I bet ninety percent of the damn thing over the nose and mouth are pure shi! and don’t work. This is a communists trick to have a hold over your life like slavery. And the death stats from the virus is mostly shit! also. We have been gamed on much of this. This is a serious virus but the flu is 10 times more deadly and we still have it.

and remember folks- the 6 feet separation law only goes out to the sides of a person- a person standing 3 or so inches in back of the person is A-ok

I noticed the press were all 6 feet apart side to side, but chairs were right behind the person where the person was only about a foot away or so

This is how ridiculous this whole thing is-

ok to buy lottery tickets, but not ok to sit in a car with windows up in parking lot listening to a preacher over the radio

ok to buy liquor, but not ok to go to funeral where everyone practices social distancing

ok for everyone in government to go out without a mask, but not ok for people to be on a lake miles away from everyone enjoying themselves fishing-

Not to worry. They’re all dead from boredom at home.

How to kill a nation. Cough.

Horsepucky. As I have read elsewhere, if the government wanted you to wear a symbol showing that you had given up your right to free speech and assembly, what might they choose - a face mask maybe?

You have NO political rights unless you wear what I tell you to!

I am God because I went to a small, worthless little college and majored in high school chemistry, allowing me to get an affirmative action enrollment in medical school!

So there! Prostrate yourselves!

The 6 ft spread is only if you are NOT wearing a mask.

Does Birx have the least concern about all of those who's lives and families are destroyed by the prolonged shutdown or the many who will die because the US economy is destroyed? Birx, Fauci and their ilk are promulgating mass murder by their actions and keep changing the numbers to justify their actions. The models are slow death for many of us.

She wants the childlike life of living on a military case

Frau Oberst Docktor Brix had a very unusual military career, serving as a researcher for her entire career. However, your characterization of the military as a childlike life is beyond an insult. When I was 23 years of old, I was commanding a rifle company in combat, responsible for every man in that company and doing my very best to make the right decisions no matter the situation. Go stuff it buddy.
