The nation's top infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci says states should consider adding a different testing strategy for COVID-19 known as “pool testing.” He says the White House Coronavirus Task Force is seriously considering it.

It’s a method that involves testing in batches verse individually. It can prove to be critical, especially now as some states are dealing with testing shortages. Experts say it can also prove to be a useful safety tool for colleges and universities that are preparing to welcome back some students.

“It is a good way for schools to be able to test a large number of their population and quickly

'Must get cases to surge to 1000,000 a day quickly. Pool testing is the only way. Must get Joe Biden elected.'

Testing for active cases is a waste of time & money now...that “cat was out of the bag” a couple of months ago (containment)...need antibody testing now to see how close to “herd immunity” we are...”experts” are just guessing at that right now...’’10x active cases” or “4-5% of the total population”. Need actual numbers.

Lock this goofy, PIAPS-loving traitorous POS up.....he has about as much credibility as a stinky, floating turd in a wedding punchbowl.

If you caught COVID-19, stay at home. It’s a bad cold. No reason to get tested unless you got hospitalized.

“The nation’s top infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci ...”

This is nonsense. No one has been ordained “top infectious disease expert.”

And whoever it might be, it’s not Fauci.

Why don’t these reporters use his actual title, Director of NIAID.

Overpaid to bamboozle and waffle
And contradict himself publicly awful—
Dour Mr. Hyde-Fauci,
Can’t resist Paparazzi—
His advice is big buckets of offal.

I think I had it in early January. Horrid flu, even took off from work. I would NEVER visit an older person with any kind of cold or flu symptom inklings.

Hospitals are horrid with respiratory problems. My mother was being treated for pneumonia. When they tested the wrong color fluid from her lung, she had a treatable form of leukemia. They make a lot of assumptions, and are pretty arrogant about them.

I’ll raise my hand but, I will not raise them both...

FOAD POS Fauxci...

March 2020: Dr. Anthony Fauci talks with Dr Jon LaPook about COVID-19
March 2020:
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/preventing-coronavirus-facemask-60-minutes-2020-03-08/

This POS posits:

“There’s no reason to be walking around with a mask,” infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci told 60 Minutes.

While masks may block some droplets, Fauci said, they do not provide the level of protection people think they do. Wearing a mask may also have unintended consequences: People who wear masks tend to touch their face more often to adjust them, which can spread germs from their hands.

FU Asshole

Oh, and he does point out the travesty of this idiocy:

You are touching the mask and your face the whole time, which essentially us you running your fingers through your mouth and fingers all day.

Further, your don’t change masks after each interaction like medical professionals do

So, WTF good are doing?

Touching the same “dirty” mask day after day that you don’t clean everyday either

You effin liars!

If efficacy is the standard then, given what we know in 2020 how are you not mandating a minimum standard such as n95, which should be largely available to most are the ridiculous flimsy mask that has no standard but looks medically attractive?

You guys are such assholes

You would have had your current standard of mask compulsion 4 months ago if they truly were effective but, you’re frauds
