Fauci acknowledges outdoor COVID-19 transmission 'low,' expects updated mask guidance
Fox News ^ | April 25,2021 | By Peter Aitken

Dr. Anthony Fauci believes the Centers for Disease Control will soon provide updated COVID-19 guidance on using face masks in outdoor settings, calling it "common sense" to do so.

Face masks have taken an increasingly central role in debate lately as many question the continued and widespread use of masks even as vaccinations continue to soar nationwide. A Georgia mother went viral this week after she sounded off on her local school board continuing its mask mandate through next year.

Fauci agrees with some of that thought, saying that the risk for people engaging in outdoor activities is "minuscule," especially for vaccinated individuals.

"What I believe you’re going to be hearing, what the country is going to be hearing soon, is updated guidelines from the CDC," Fauci told ABC’s "This Week." "The CDC is a science-based organization. They don’t want to make any guidelines unless they look at the data and the data backs it up."

"But when you look around at the common sense situation, the risk is really low, especially if you’re vaccinated," he said.

I suspect outdoor transmission is zero unless you are right in somebody’s face. I don’t do that with no COVID going around.

I didn’t like him from the start. Some of what he advised has been common sense. Other things have been political propaganda. Yes, he should be in jail with most of our government.

Stay out of spittin’ distance.

I learned to do that at a young age since I live in the South where tobacco chews and spittin' are the norm. Yuck!

Folks will panic without clear direction and their new security blankets being called out. Of course they could just keep wearing them. DOH! 😷🙌

Lock him up for funding gain-of-function work in Wuhan.

He’s guilty of the murder of more than George Floyd.

Plus he wants to keep his figurative knee on the neck of all Americans.

fauci spoke; now the fascist media will have to reverse their current propaganda: “We’ve ALWAYS been at war with Eastasia and Masks ALWAYS had to be worn *ONLY* indoors” ...

[btw, i just saw some young masked fool walking his dog down our street ... perfect day too: sunny, very mild breeze, 74 degrees ...]

I’m a little “rough around the edges,” so Fauci sitting in a prison cell does nothing for me.

I want him hanging from an oak tree.

“But when you look around at the common sense situation, the risk is really low, especially if you’re vaccinated,” he said.

Another flat out lie from Fauci.

Dr. Richard Fleming reviewed the FDA data in the EUA Reports and said it indicated no statistical difference between vaccinated and non-vaccinated individuals.

“Fleming says the vaccine companies own data, from Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson, all show they make zero difference in stopping covid. The Emergency Use Authorization data “shows there is no difference.”

COVID is not the only disease that is spread in enclosed environments with a lot of people. That’s one reason the flu goes around the most in cold weather. People are all squished up together inside. If it’s pretty out it’s always better to congregate outside.

“I want him hanging from an oak tree.”

He is deserving of that immediately after a fair trial.

If the public knew and understood his role in suppressing the life saving data that Dr. Judy Mikovits discovered about the animal retrovirus vaccine contamination he would have already met that fate.

Fauci’s lies caused deaths. Does a state’s AG have the authority to indict Fauci for crimes against humanity?
