Former FDA Commissioner Says Social Distancing Mandate ‘Wasn’t Based on Clear Science’
Former Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Scott Gottlieb said that the six-foot social distancing mandate that was employed across much of the United States and the world to deal with the CCP virus pandemic “wasn’t based on clear science.”
“This six-foot distancing requirement has probably been the single costliest mitigation tactic that we’ve employed in response to COVID … and it really wasn’t based on clear science … we should have re-adjudicated this much earlier,” he said in an interview with CNBC.
In the midst of relaxation of CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus rules—including one from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) saying it’s safe for schoolchildren to have three-foot distancing—Gottlieb suggested that masks may also be safely removed."
...
Gottlieb also was asked about a public dispute between Dr. Anthony Fauci, the head of the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, and Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), who is a physician himself, about whether masks should be worn after a recipient is vaccinated for the CCP virus, which causes the COVID-19 disease.
...
Gottlieb said “both [Paul and Fauci] made valid points,” but noted that “Senator Paul was right, we need to see light at the end of the tunnel and have guidance that prescribes an environment where people can start doing things again.”

Wasn’t based on clear science.
Ya think?
The virus is real, but the other 97% has been raw crowd control politics.
You can get a lot of viruses through touching infected surfaces and/or people and then touching yourself, particularly your face. That’s the primary mode of transmission from viral pink eye to Ebola. But, touch generally isn’t a robust mode of transmission for respiratory viruses and this one is no different.
Indeed.

They were all obsessed with hating him. Unprecedented what they did (& continued to do) to him, and his supporters.
“adjudicate”?
Who is he? The prosecutor, judge and jury?
When they Yuts don’t take no learning in science, this is what you get. Previously 3 foot distance was fine so they doubled it. I’m sure they received more than a participation award.
State constitutions need to be amended to put time limits on lockdowns and on the mandatory wearing of masks.
State constitutions also need to be amended to make state health and environmental protection officials elected by popular vote.
Constitutionally time-limited lockdowns and limited mask requirements need to automatically trigger special recall elections for governors, mayors and disaster officials who order lockdowns and mask wearing, also state lawmakers.
Finally, constitutions need to require people planning to run for state and local offices to escrow a refundable "recall deposit" before becoming a candidate, the deposit fully paying in advance for their possible recall elections if they are elected, amounts determined by law.
And speaking of politically correct global warming...

Wait, it should have been 7 feet? Or 5 feet?
I always wondered about the science behind the magical 6 feet.
I think a 528 ft distance would work rather well.
Why hasn’t a breathalyzer been developed?
Social Distancing invented by a 14 year old girl during the Bush Admin in 2006 ,LOL
But it sure got a lot of people screaming and advising. I have told busy bodies to f off more times then I should have when nagged by someone for walking too close.
Chew on this:
There is a lot of REAL science indicating that COVID—like cruise ship noroviruses—is spread primarily be fecal to oral transmission.
Let that sink in.
Remember about a year ago when there were a few quickly buried stories about communities in the New England states that were going to start testing sewerage for COVID?
Let that sink in.
Now consider this: In many States (Pennsylvania and Ohio for sure) the mask mandates are explicit that those in restaurants MUST wear a mask INTO THE RESTROOM where of course that cloth will absorb all toilet odors and other zhit.
Let that sink in.
Then the patron MUST wear the zhit laden mask back into the restaurant so that with every exhale the patrons innocently eating pancakes can get a dose of the restroom zhit.
Let that sink in.
Still hungry?
“FauXi off” is the best reply.
Or “Go FauXi yourself”.
I thought Social Distancing was invented by Nuns and Priests at Catholic School dances. A long long time ago.
More PROOF ALL Liberals are LIARS!!!!
