We’re probably two weeks away from the CDC saying masks are pointless

This is in direct contrast to what we have been told. Who was fired? This is a monumental frick up. All credibility is hopelessly lost.

I just went to donate blood, walked up to the door and they told me I needed a mask. Told her I’d be back when that was no longer the case.

If this thing was as contagious as originally feared, so many more hospital workers would have been infected.


My wife is a PA whose previous job was at a walk in clinic during this “pandemic“ (she started her new job two days ago). She had at least two dozen patients test positive for COVID; when they tested the employees for antibodies, she had none. And most of her coworkers had none either.

This shite is a fake, perpetrated by the lying media.

While I don't disagree with the 2nd part, why would any political party want to kill folks in other countries, much less our own? Furthermore, the state that has seen the biggest impact from the virus is a blue state.

Biology and disease is non-partisan. Your statement makes no sense at all. Not everything is a political issue.

So you're saying I can throw away my 2000 pack of surgical gloves?

True enough. But media coverage and governmental and societal reaction to biology and disease is very partisan.

Keep them for cooking. I bought some gloves during this pandemic. But I only use them for cutting peppers and handling raw meat.

I’ve donated twice since the shutdown & haven’t been asked to wear a mask

My take from all this is the CDC is generally clueless


No clue how the director hasn't been fired already. Hell, he should've been fired when they insisted on developing their own tests and then managed to frick it up.

Oh yeah, he speaks kindly of Trump, that's why he still has a job.

Sources say the origin of the trust issues between the CDC and White House traces back to the CDC's botched effort to distribute testing in early February, when contamination in the lab led to long delays. 

Quote is from a CNN article where the CDC says they've been muzzled and of course it is all Trump's fault, but then put this in the middle of the article detailing where the relationship soured.

I mean, with the way the CDC bungled the testing and were taking the CCP and WHO words as gospel early on, I wouldn't want them spearheading anything. Now after months of spreading fear and panic about how easily spread this virus is it's now not so easy unless you're in close contact with an infected individual. No masks, now everyone must wear masks. They are clearly incompetent.
