The United States' top pandemic advisor said Sunday that authorities were considering cutting social distancing rules to three feet (one meter), a move that would change a key tenet of the global fight against Covid-19.

Anthony Fauci, a world-respected figure during the coronavirus crisis, said experts at the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) were examining a Massachusetts study that found "no substantial difference" in Covid cases in schools observing six-foot and three-foot rules.

Why did this study take so long? Shouldn't they have been doing this study last...March?

Why anybody still listens to this medical weatherman is beyond me.

This man is a virologist who needs to stay in his field. He should have no actual influence on anything we do because economics and business are not his areas of expertise. He needs to stay where he belongs.

So CDC admitted end of last week that studies show that masks have negligible impact on stopping the spread now we are being told 6ft was all bullshite too?

Damn, its almost like science isn’t science.

Now is not the time to get complacent. Double it to 12 ft for 12 weeks to stop the spread.

And you have people suing the state of Texas trying to force the mask mandate to remain in effect

I find it sad that it’s taken a year or more for people to actually question this arbitrary bullshite they came up with. A year ago, a lot of us were shouted down for asking questions like this.

frick Fauci and all the politicians that used COVID to influence the election and get bailouts.

What a hell of a pass we've come to when we have people telling us how far we have to stand from each other. Land of the free no more

I wish Chicken would kill any thread that is about what Fauci said!

Nobody is listening or cares what he says any longer.

They should go 4’. Just so all the stores have to completely reconfigure all the markers that tell you where to stand. 3’ would be too easy coming from 6’

I’ll give y’all a hint. Nobody is following those rules. I haven’t been in one place for a year where nobody ever got within 6 feet of each other. The rule was constantly being flexed and bent because people don’t work like machines.

Hopefully more than 3 customers can be inside Mary Lee’s in the near future.

What’s interesting was the swiftness to which they implemented these changes without any real knowledge but the hesitancy to de-escalation despite having the information.
