I cant see where this dr Fauci is saying anything that hasn't been said before.
He initially said that masks were not helpful.
That's OK for you or I.
But shouldn't a guy who is an expert on SARS CoV know about these things. It's not the first outbreak of that thing.
Then he said people who were vaccinated should wear them.
Then he decided they didn't need to.
And he was given a heads up about how colleagues said this doesn't look natural.
And then went on to blast people that said they were skeptical about it occurring naturally (except in emails that were just released).

Re the masks. For months we (UK) were told wearing masks potentially caused more problems than not.
Seems the rest of the world was wearing them but us.
Then we were told if you had the virus they may prevent you spreading it, but wearing one wouldn't stop you catching it. It only became mandatory to wear masks in all enclosed public places at the end of July.
A rule that many have ignored...and no one seems to insist on.

I've never worn one. They don't help tbh. I can't wear anything over my nose or mouth. So my doctor said I was exempt, otherwise I will have a panic attack.

You know those surgeons that wear masks in the operating theatre? I don't suppose they wear them for fun. Didn't that give everyone a clue?

Those are N 95 masks for the most part. The problem with Fauci is he kept wearing his after he was vaccinated.
Now he makes the more logical decision that vaccinated people don't need to wear them, while unvaccinated do, because the latter group is the one that is still a risk to others in the latter group, except for those who had the virus.
Fauci became "political" and abandoned science for awhile.

With Modi and his Government promoting this fucking charlatan Baba Ramdev and his bullshit Aurveda 'cures' for COVID-19 what chance do the desperate and uneducated poor really have?
I mean many Government lawmakers and religious groups are saying that if you drink cow piss and smear yourself with cow shit you will be immune and people really believe what they are told!
FFS!
No wonder India's doctors and other medical professionals are in total despair.
Modi is yet another another extremist right wing fucktard (Trump, Bolsonaro etc) who could not give a shit about his own people dying in vast numbers - in fact he might be the worst of the lot given the widespread cover up of the true death toll.
It's possible that if workers from that lab became ill and needed hospital treatment, if indeed they had been infected with covid whist experimenting with it, that's how this virus could have transferred from lab to hospital to public to world.
Typical religious leader - slags off science until his fat sorry arse needs it and yet millions will still hang on to his every word.
The human race can be incredibly dumb.

Seems like our freedom to get back to 'normal' is going to be delayed a few weeks.

There will be a third wave but fatalities will be low - only those stupid enough to not have the vaccine will get ill or die.
That's their choice.

The majority of people who are still refusing the vaccine in the UK are Blacks followed by Asians.
The government really should bring in some sort of Covid passport as soon as every adult has been offered the jab, sod discrimination....the ones who are still selfishly refusing it for no good reason, deserve to be discriminated against.

Of course Syl but in today's culture actually publicly saying this would bring the BLM and Islamic zealots out on the bloody streets accusing everyone of 'racism' or 'Islamophobia'.

The government have said it loads of times. In fact the BBC reported figures last week that 90% of whites who have been offered the jab have accepted, 70% of Asians and only 60% of blacks.
Some local vaccination centres have been operating locally, anyone can come without an appointment, no info will be asked for apart from a contact tel no.
It's to encourage immigrants, who may not be legally entitled to be here to get vaccinated.

Good news that people who work in care homes will have to have the covid jab or face being fired.

A very close friend of mine has just caught Covid. She's had both her jabs too. So, everyone needs to realise that it's still out there and it still makes you very ill
Syl said
Jun 22 4:48 PM, 2021
Thankfully people who have had their jabs don't seem to be as ill if they are unlucky enough to still catch it, but the infection is still rife round greater Manchester.
Is your friend OK?
I have mixed more in the last few days than I have since this pandemic started, I will do a test before Friday, we are off for a few days by the coast.
Been out today for lunch, all the precautions of mask wearing, social distancing, wiping down tables and chairs after use....all seem to have gone by the board now.
