Dr. Anthony Fauci suggested Wednesday that Americans should consider wearing goggles or a face shield in order to prevent spreading or catching COVID-19.

"If you have goggles or an eye shield, you should use it," the nation's top infectious disease expert told ABC News Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. Jennifer Ashton during an Instagram Live conversation on ABC News.


Got them goggles bruh @NoSavingByTheBell ?

We do full face shields w masks at work. Especially since we've had both canine and feline cases confirmed now. As well as a couple ass shats who tested positive try to come in recently.

@Spicoli that is good news to hear that your company has implemented that. Only clowns, who by the grace of God have not yetbeen inflicted with this demonic beast, would mock and poo poo the idea.

Most people do not cough out of their eyes. Masks are surely more about protecting others but it seems for many it is all or nothing stupidity and the selfish notion that other people should be forced to buy a lottery ticket on the unmasked gobshites virtual signalling their independent thinking whilst blindly following Qanon, Trump, the House of Saud and expert YouTube knob heads like PJW.

Luckily you've only had canine and feline cases in Tanzania they've had positive tests returned from a goat and a pawpaw fruit.

Viruses/diseases are absorbed via mucous membranes which are located in your mouth, your nose, and your eyes. So the goggles/eye protection are to keep droplets/aerosolized particles out of the mucous membranes in your eyes. But that's cool, I guess someone super healthy like yourself who is in contact with other super healthy people throughout your day to day life shouldn't bother. I mean @NoSavingByTheBell isn't worried about it, are you Steve?

As for masks working....hey, don't take it from me, how about 'The New England Journal of Medicine'? (when they use ACTUAL studies with ACTUAL doctors and not the bullshit they got hoodwinked on recently)

We know that wearing a mask outside health care facilities offers little, if any, protection from infection. Public health authorities define a significant exposure to Covid-19 as face-to-face contact within 6 feet with a patient with symptomatic Covid-19 that is sustained for at least a few minutes (and some say more than 10 minutes or even 30 minutes). The chance of catching Covid-19 from a passing interaction in a public space is therefore minimal. In many cases, the desire for widespread masking is a reflexive reaction to anxiety over the pandemic

From the same article
It is also clear that masks serve symbolic roles. Masks are not only tools, they are also talismans that may help increase health care workers’ perceived sense of safety, well-being, and trust in their hospitals.

And you might say "Well YEAH, but are there any drawbacks to that?"

Again from the same article
What is clear, however, is that universal masking alone is not a panacea. A mask will not protect providers caring for a patient with active Covid-19 if it’s not accompanied by meticulous hand hygiene, eye protection, gloves, and a gown. A mask alone will not prevent health care workers with early Covid-19 from contaminating their hands and spreading the virus to patients and colleagues. Focusing on universal masking alone may, paradoxically, lead to more transmission of Covid-19 if it diverts attention from implementing more fundamental infection-control measures.

I love you, Lyle, and there's nothing you can do about it.

I watched Dr. Fauci and that C. Everett Koop lookalike in the Congressional hearing today....what political theater. The masks only do good (if at all) if you're not touching them, grabbing them, fiddling or fucking with them and Dr. Fauci and that Amish bearded goofball next to him were CONSTANTLY putting their masks on, taking their masks off, putting them on again, no hand sanatizer adjusting the masks taking them off putting them back on.


Added to which Dr. Fauci couldn't bring himself to denounce mass amounts of people gathering together NOT observing social distancing, in order to "MOSTLY peacefully protest...MOSTLY"


What the fuck are we doing here? If you're immunocompromized isolate! Follow the distancing, hand washing, mask wearing. If you're healthy just go about your daily life. How difficult is that?

As I said to TIC. You can cut your cloth to suit on this. The bottom line is 'The Experts' are divided on whether they work or not and always have been, it's not a new thing. This article here cites lots of studies all over the World that say they are affective and some that say they aren't https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/202...virus-science/

Picking the one you like best and calling it so, daft. Common sense says if you stick something in the way of something harmful, it helps. Seatbelts aren't perfect. We all accept that it's better to wear one than not right?

[NoSavingByTheBell]

seat belts is a great example and yet you still have asswipes who say that somebody who had a seatbelt on during an accident was the cause of the death

Those kinds of ass wipes always find the exception and then use that as their freak flag to wave high in order to justify their non-compliance with a common sense decision

They talk about virus being smaller than the holes in a mask, they act like it is a direct hit with a laser beam and the virus particle will go straight through the holes on a mask. Walking through a cloud of suspended water vapor from somebody's cough or sneeze or yelling or shouting, OBVIOUSLY THE MASK IS GOING TO BLOCK THAT THE MAJORITY OF TIMES. SAME WITH THE EYES. IF YOU ARE WEARING EYEGLASSES AND YOU WALK STRAIGHT THROUGH A CLOUD OF MIST WHICH HANGS IN THE AIR FOR SEVERAL MINUTES OR MORE, OBVIOUSLY THE GLASSES WILL BLOCK THE VIRUS PARTICLES FROM LANDING IN YOUR EYES.

These are sick people suffering from anal retention and the Good ol Murrican Way of Non-compliance duh Muh Freedom.

car crashes exist. we have all seen or experienced them yeh. so called experts can say what they want. how often have the experts been wrong & lied to you? prove your belief before you start saying what will help against it
