Dr. Deborah Birx: Eye shields can prevent people from spreading coronavirus

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.

Is that "Willie Tanner" on the right?

Pretty sure rioters could buy goggles even before this; they just weren’t smart enough to do so.

Now they are going to stop us from being able to touch around our eyes?

Why would you want to touch around your eyes to begin with? Touching your face is how many respiratory illnesses, not just CV, spread.

And Trump will come out at his next lame presser praising these two, and of course reminding us that we have plenty of ventilators!

Until Trump cuts ties with these two idiots, he is part of the problem!

The next thing she will recommend is that the hands be tethered in such a way so that they can’t touch the eyes, no matter how much the eyes may itch.

“..Not only has he brought financial ruin to millions, he has rejected and effectively banned one of the only useful treatments for the plague.
There is only one reason to continue to support Dr. Fauci. He has made himself indispensable to the US Democrat and the Chinese Communist parties in their efforts to destroy the US as a nation....”

Both he and Scarf should be locked up in GITMO as domestic enemy combatants for what they’ve done to the economy and to the People. Especially Fauxi. This little, commie, PIAPS-loving SOB gave millions in U.S. taxpayer dollars to that CCP bioweapons lab over there. He contributed to the development of this crap, either directly or indirectly, with our own taxpayer dollars. He and the DNC likely colluded with the CCP with the planned release.
IF the truth be known, Fauxi and all his commie buds at the DNC have probably been on HCQ since a week before the planned release. Certain folks should be hanged for this, including this lying, traitorous, little commie, weasel bassturd. Actually, hanging the POS is waaaayyyy too good for him.

“When I think about you, I touch my face”

Just don’t be touching anything else. That “maskdebate” said three times real fast might give people the wrong idea.

“...Be thankful you don’t live in Pennsylvania Tranniesylvania or THIS would be your face of COVID...”

LMAO...yep.
I went up there earlier this month to the Carlise Chrysler Car Show.
We have friends from PA, and we get together at that show every year. They call him: heshitit (pronounced in my best PA accent as “he shit it”). They hate him...and the gov...LOL
He’s a deadbeat dad and not even a real medical doctor.
He belongs in an insane asylum, not in state government.

“The only way to stop the plague is to terminate everyone permanently. THAT will stop the plague.”

Patience, Lou. Bill Gates is working on that. It’s his goal to “de-populate” the planet. I’m sure he’ll achieve it sometime.

“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.”

YES!! X10.

We pray every day for God to show PDJT how to get through this mess. If he doesn’t, we are finished as a country.

That’s not the point.

The point is my eyes and hands are not for them to decide when and how they come in contact.

What sort of an authoritarian bot have they made you into?

And Trump backs these idiots who are deliberately in the process of destroying this country.

Anyway... Donnie should pass an EO that major corporations should produce full body condoms. After your daily shower with liquid Drano, suit up in your handy-dandy-brandy-new condom and goggles.
