Fauci backs 'double-masking' in coronavirus fight, says 'likely more effective'
Fox News ^ | 1/25/21 | Kayla Rivas

Experts recently told Fox News there is little to no evidence behind 'double masking'

----

Dr. Anthony Fauci, President Biden’s chief medical adviser on COVID-19, said two face masks are likely more effective than one against the novel coronavirus, despite significant uncertainty on the subject.

"If you have a physical covering with one layer, you put another layer on it just makes common sense that it likely would be more effective," Fauci told NBC News on Monday.

Infectious disease experts from Stanford Health Care, Mayo Clinic and Johns Hopkins University recently told Fox News there is little to no evidence on the issue.

Neysa Ernst from Johns Hopkins University, where she serves as nurse manager of the Biocontainment Unit, agreed, though she proposed that anecdotal evidence suggests additional layers could offer "psychological safety" to some.

Fauci removed his own mask during last week’s White House press briefing despite President Biden’s executive order requiring masks on federal property.

He can take his “precious” masking ideas and shove them. He reminds me of Gollum.

I have two doses of the vaccine on board. I don’t think I need to double mask now as well.

At some point, I expect the Dems to be the ones to throw him under that Bus. Most the GOP were far too polite to do it.
Word is, he is being paid over $400K for all this Viral Cheerleading. That’s more than most American presidents.

It seems like it was just a year ago that he was telling us not to even bother wearing one mask and now he wants us to wear two of them. The man is incompetent at best.

Where are the scientific studies showing this is effective?.
Fauci is a quack and a psycho.
These people aim to break the will of free individuals and it will NOT work!
They are also trying to crush small business owners and jobs. They want us all ready for the commie takeover when they promise us checks as we wait in line for handouts.
Fuuccckkk them!

Dr. Rudi Schimmelstuck says triple masks are most effective. Almost as effective as a plastic bag.

I recommend sellotape or cellophane as being 100% effective.

Gee how about 5 or 6 masks. Even better.

Why not 3 or 4 masks?

Heck, you know what? Being dead is the best defense against the virus...

Get ready folks, they are coming for you.

They need to start adding masks to Fraudchi’s face until he no longer has to worry about catching Corona!

I suspect he would be unable to breathe and thus save from corona after about 20-30 masks
