I'll ask him.

His comment was that since everyone has been masked all the time, his workload has tanked. It was a conversation about him thinking of shutting down and going to work for someone else's practice. He's tired of going it alone.

As Dr. Fauci implores - do all of those preventive things, please. Because they work!

Note : when inside hospitals all workers are masked to stop coronavirus (Covid) spread. They are a clue for you that masks work. And I often see them NOT able to social distance as they care for patients.

Fraudulent how?
They/them, non-binary and proud.

Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.
The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.

Fraudulent means to intentionally mislead. I'd say some of his comments fit the bill.
Dr.Faucci wrote:When polls said only about half of all Americans would take a vaccine, I was saying herd immunity would take 70 to 75%. Then, when newer surveys said 60% or more would take it, I thought, 'I can nudge this up a bit,' so I went to 80, 85."

He’s trying to leverage more people into getting it. Truth be told the more that get it the better. I would be more concerned if he lowered it than raised it.

Justify it however you will, it is still by definition a fraudulent statement. He intentionally lied about something with the intent that his lie would get a certain subset of people to do something that he didn't believe they would do if he had simply told them the truth.

Nope... Well at least not for me...

This is an image taken Sunday, 03/21/21. after the 8:00 PM curfew. Not much social distancing going on here. Evidently these folks are buying into the "Masks Don't Work" theory.

New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

I wonder if there will be a surge after this. My news department also had a story out of Michigan about how cases are rising again due to the British variant. Anyone think the screws will be turned again?
