Rochelle Walensky, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), said in an interview with Healthline published Friday that the country can stop the Chinese coronavirus “in its tracks” if everyone wears a mask until more are vaccinated.
Healthline asked the CDC director if she agrees with former CDC director Tom Frieden’s estimation that “we could get to 200,000 new cases a day.”
“I’ve seen modeling data. Some of the modeling data do go up that high. Not all of them do. Do I think it’s possible? Yes, I think it’s possible,” she said.
“What I do want to reiterate, though, is a unified approach as a country would stop this [pandemic] in its tracks. We know what we need to do to stop this virus. It can fall short of many of the things we had to do last year. Do I think we all need to stay home right now? I do not,” she continued before pitching masks as a crucial mitigation strategy.
“But if we are able to get the vast majority of people vaccinated and if, in the meantime until they are fully vaccinated, we had everybody wearing masks, we can stop this in its tracks and really be in a way better place in a relatively short period of time,” she added.
It remains unclear why she believes this action would stop the virus “in its tracks,” given the mass spread of the virus last year, particularly in heavily restricted blue states which had mask mandates in place for months on end.

That made me LOL although sadly true.
Why yes of course we can...and when the vaccine rate fails, what’s the next excuse?
My guess is that there is no answer for that question. Because getting everyone vaccinated in the USA will not protect everyone in the USA when new variants emerge elsewhere in the world.
How many more?
15 days’ worth...?
“He is lying again.”
The liar is a ackand a she not he.
What needs to be stopped are the injections!
Agree...they want mail in....where people will never know whether their vote got counted or thrown in the circular file.
The CDC admits now that it is spread by the injections.
Guess what the folks you're bringing in ain't wearing...
COVID-infected illegals released without notice into Texas communities
But then, these aren't really masks, are they...
They're muzzles.
It could be stopped in its tracks if the FedGov stopped importing it from Mexico.
ROTF!!!! Love it!
Bon Appetit.
Covid 19 was created for the injections.
oh please.
If it didn’t work in 2020 why should it work now?
please.
If it didn’t work in 2020 why should it work now?
