Dr. Deborah Birx: This Is Not the Time to Go to the Grocery Store
Breitbart ^ | 4/4/20 | Charlie Spiering

Posted on 04/04/2020 6:58:35 PM PDT by david1292

Dr. Deborah Birx said Saturday that Americans should especially focus on social distancing guidelines in the next two weeks to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.

“This is the moment to not be going to the grocery store, not going to the pharmacy, but doing everything you can to keep your family and your friends safe,” she said.

Birx noted that Pennsylvania, Colorado, and the Washington, DC, metro area were starting to have an increasing number of cases.

“We’re hoping and believing that if people mitigate strongly, the work that they did over the last two weeks will blunt that curve,” she said.

She pointed to really bad hotspots in New Jersey and New York, where cases of the virus and deaths were still going up.

“The next two weeks are extraordinarily important,” she said.

Dr. Anthony Fauci also said three or four hotspots were continuing to rise, but that certain areas could flatten the curve by social distancing.

“Just make sure everybody does the at least minimal amount of that physical separation, because the virus has no place to go if you’re physically separating,” Fauci said.

I thought the last two weeks were the critical two weeks.

Let me guess. After the next two weeks is up, the two weeks after that will be the critical two weeks.

It is if you’ll starve to death from not having groceries.

How’s her testing of a few geographically dispersed general populations going so we can get a good idea of the actual mortality rate here in the US?

They moved the weeks, originally it looked like the virus cases would peak before Palm Sunday, now it is the weeks before and after Easter.

Not sure why it was moved.

The Doctors of Doom are using guesswork each day. This is insanity. They are not elected leaders; they are doctors in their field providing advice. That’s it! I’ve had it!

If I were in NYC, I would try really hard not to go to the grocery store.

But I’m not in NYC. I’m in a small town and I can’t see my neighbor’s house from my house. If I feel like going to the grocery store, I get in my car and go. I just keep my distance from people.

I am not at all convinced that we have “flattened the curve” in this country.

Let’s review NYC and NYS:

It was never serious.

The homeless untouched by any government agencies isolated decrees.

Illegals untouched.

Gays festivals untouched.

Known drug markets untouched.

Muslims untouched.

Abortion mills untouched.

Marijuana shops never closed.

Subways never closed.

Still an open borders sanctuary city/state.

A JOKE of a lock down to “bend” the curve.

Regular people see right through it and are ignoring the power mad mayors and governors.
