CDC Ditz Rachel Walensky: Don't Worry, You're Only Going to Have to Wear Masks and Socially Distance for "A Couple of Weeks"
—Ace
A couple of weeks you say...?

Gee, why does that sound so extremely familiar to me...?

Oh well, if the Ruling Class says it's just for "a couple of weeks," I trust them. They've never lied to me before.

Dr. Rochelle Walensky says new mask-wearing guidance, coupled with higher rates of vaccination against COVID-19, could halt the current escalation of infections in "a couple of weeks."

A couple of weeks to "halt the current escalation of infections?"

Help me out, guys -- why does this sound so damnably familar?

The director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention told "CBS This Morning" she hopes more stringent mask-wearing guidelines and other measures won't be necessary as the country heads into the fall.

Wait, she said we just needed "a couple of weeks" and then shifted to sayin she ""hopes" that more stringent measures won't be needed "heading into the fall."

It sounds to me like she intends for us to wear masks for more than "a couple of weeks," but is just lying about "a couple of weeks" to get us on-board with the scheme.

She wouldn't do that, would she?

How would you get people to be vaxxed? Honest question, no politics, but an honest to goodness public health strategy?

I'm in low income communities on a daily basis. Not one billboard, not one person from any government vertical trying to convince anyone to get a vaccine. I go back home or back to the office, turn on the TV and behold! the unvaccinated are being demonized. People in suits behind desks inchorently ranting about how the followers of orange man are driving the pandemic of the unvaxxed. What a crock. In the meantime, black and brown people will continue to not be vaxxed, cases will increase, masks come back, places where they work will be forced to close, and their jobs go poof...Fun times.

Cuomo was on tv today calling for the offices to reopen. Apparently there’s some worry about the commercial real estate market numbers. Plus some downstream effects like luncheons travel and conferences. But the offices won’t reopen fully if there’s a mask mandate. White collar workers will already feel a loss about having flex time traded into face time. They going to give up jobs they can do from home to be masked all day esp at ny hours? Same with downstream effects…no offices mean no work lunches…masks mean no conferences (i and 4 others I know in law and pharma have just had some cancelled or moved remote this week)….masks mean travel is restricted to certain essential things since the new guidance limits it to hot spots (and you can’t have employees being ordered into hot spots)

many people have already left their job (voluntarily). This the largest public health failure I've ever seen. Play the blame and mandate game, froth at the mouth but not one coherent, tactically sound solution put forth. There are plenty of people who can be convinced to take the jab, no one is trying. It's like a bad school project..

It's not just that they aren't actively trying, but their actions have been repeatedly counterproductive...the questioning of the "Trump vaccine", the J&J halt, then the slowwalk on the myocarditis issue, the failure to study the pregnancy miscarriage issue, the flip flop on masks, the deferring to interest groups like teacher's unions, the failure to rush study on alternative treatments, the demonizing of the unvaccinated by some politicians and the media, the politicization of it all (by some blaming the Rs), and their just ignoring what the real impacts of natural immunity might be (which from the initial Israeli data might actually be more robust than vaccine immunity, depending on how badly you got the illness).

Not funny anymore cheater!!! I was talking to a waiter who told me under no terms will he put on the mask. I didnt ask if he got the jab. Dude is cool and just wants to breathe freely. Why do you joke about this issue and never address the the abuse of the females? Why Uncle Espola? Horrible person to not admit cheating when caught.
