Robert Redfield, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, believes "the most powerful weapon we have" against the novel coronavirus is wearing face coverings, washing hands and "being smart about social distancing."

"If we all rigorously did this, we could really bring this outbreak back to where it needs to be," Redfield told the Journal of the American Medical Association via video on Tuesday.

Coronavirus cases are surging across the U.S., from California to Texas to Florida. More than 3.4 million people in the country have been diagnosed with the coronavirus and over 136,00 people have died.

To Redfield, a major key to controlling the pandemic is wearing masks.

BS. It prolongs the inevitable. Only those have COVID or those who are vulnerable should wear masks.

Amen. Masks simply do nothing at all for this.

They are pushing for sheep to comply.

whitehouse.gov/live just updated that at 4PM President Trump will deliver remarks on “rolling back regulations to help all Americans.”

Mr. President, with all due respect, since the China Flu hit is the CDC has been cranking out endless reams of regulations at breakneck speed that touch virtually every aspect of American life. If they keep cranking them out at this rate they’ll use up so much paper that there won’t be a tree left standing in Oregon.

You need to make your words match the realities of the situation, Sir.

If this mask ‘wonder-drug’ were true, then the whole thing would have disappeared in Germany back in late June in Germany...because of massive mask requirements.

The face diapers aren’t working now ...... so no matter how long these unhealthy rags are mandated they still won’t “magically start working”.

As I told before. I called my pulmonologist, who has been retired for a couple years and a friend of mine, after this thing got out. I asked him what exactly this thing was. The answer he gave was simple. Its a virus, and there is NO CURE for a virus at this time. No amount of quarantine will prevent the spread. He also stated that in all the worlds history, no quarantine has EVER worked. I.E. the Spanish flu was spread across the entire world and it even hit remote communities within the USA.

Then it burned out and was gone..

Nature can be cruel.

The answer is actually real simple.

Trump needs to fire all of these sh*tty ass government doctors and hire some REAL ones who will apply some common sense to the situation.

Yes, but the masks do not protect the wearer unless they are n95, and even those may not.

It is really surprising that the CDC has not recommended everyone in the world just quit breathing.   /s

Honestly, all masks are not equal. There are no guidelines for a protective mask which tells me this is BS.

I have seen really dirty, grimy masks on people that they wear over and over and (probably) never wash. So, the mask picks up all the viruses and bacteria that the wearer then touches, stuffs in pocket/purse, takes it out at next store, puts it back on.

Then they get to the car, after touching infected mask, open a bag of doritos... they get Covid.

Are they trying (at the CDC) to SPREAD the virus.? Nah.
