Dr. Deborah Birx, the White House coronavirus response coordinator, on Thursday said face shields that block people from touching their eyes can be useful in helping prevent the spread of the coronavirus.
“Here’s the thing about the face shield in addition to the mask: the mask is to protect others,” Dr. Birx said on “Fox & Friends.” “The thing about the face shields - we think that that could protect the individuals and that it would decrease the ability for them to touch their eyes and spread [the] virus as well as those droplets coming towards them.”
Dr. Anthony Fauci of the National Institutes of Health said this week that if people have goggles or eye shields, they should use them.

I wear contact lenses. Do those count?
like seat belts, it should be voluntary
The only “eye shield” I want is NOT to see that ugly mug on my tv or computer anymore. She, along with the Fauxi, need to be locked up in GITMO as domestic enemy combatants for what they did the economy and the People. Nothin’ but a fricken’ commie beotch....a liar and a traitor.
Time for a NEW team of Drs and “experts”.
That’s where these two nutcases are going.
Seatbelts.
“Owning them is voluntary”
“Owning them is mandatory, but wearing them is voluntary”
“Wearing them is mandated, but there’s no penalty”
“We won’t just pull you over, but if you get stopped for something else, you might get a citation for not wearing a seatbelt”
“Click it or ticket”
That progression happened in the space of half of my life.
WAKE. UP. PEOPLE.
When they say, wear your underwear on the outside and bark at the moon to be sure, I hope people will start thinking skeptically.
NOW??? You discover it’s “the eyes!
So covering your mouth and nose isn’t ENOUGH? (not that you have proved that masks even help) NOW we need to wear goggles?
Tell me, WHAT exactly have you been RIGHT about so far?
You people don’t know your A$$ from a hole in the ground. (an old saying). THAT MUCH I am SURE of. EXPERTS my A$$!
The only way to stop the plague is to terminate everyone permanently.
THAT will stop the plague.
I just want an eye shield that defuses laser light.....
Committing mass suicide would slow the spread also, but that doesn’t mean we should do it.
The whole thing is just what I said from the start, a political issue, rather than medical.
i do remember this, “Wearing them is mandated, but there’s no penalty”
What bogus, made up BS.
Now they are going to stop us from being able to touch around our eyes?
Trump has got to take responsibility for his admin’s whole role in and response to this pandemic mess and reverse the majority of all he has done, allowed, and funded on it over the past 6 months.
A big national mea culpa and turnaround is due to us.
How long can this hoax continue?
