I knew they would change their tune about masks. I understand with and agree with the reasoning that regular citizens not buy masks until they are no longer in shortage for health care workers. However, the CDC explicitly ignored studies that showed that even makeshift masks are better than nothing. They should have been transparent about that from the start.

Masks help. They tell people not to wear them to save them for the health professionals. That is understandable but please give people another option to stay safe.

Stay strong y'all, before you know it this will be over and we will have a good story to tell our future kids and grand kids

Dr. Fauci getting his clout up i keep seeing him everywhere. He need to drop a mixtape or some

[ericmedeiros]

Why is no one calculating the mortality rate correctly?? The proper way is to use the deaths and closed cases! NOT death's and total infected! That's throwing in all the active and unfinished cases into the figures!

You say it Avery 5minutes keep a social distance and people at grocery stores still don't do it

[chrisd]

Lock everything down except food and medicine

203, 274 recoveries and 49, 240 deaths, this is world wide.

Im sorry, I'm wearing a mask if I have to go out. I bought mine in January when I saw what was going on in China. And no....I didnt hoard anything. Im immunocompromised so I stocked my house at the end of January and first of Febuary and got PPE for if I needed to go out.

[truthinplainsight]

Please everyone... please keep practicing social distancing 🙏🏼

Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth, and we’ve been punched in the mouth, side of the head, stomach and groin.

1:08 He says health care workers need masks for protection, but they've been saying all along that masks don't offer any protection. Contradiction much?

[stairs]

I disagree, masks are very helpful. It's a barrier over the mouth. So yes its essential.

Instead of sending us a postcard, Trump should send everyone a mask. 🤔

2:09 She said to him "with all due respect" but in reality she was saying "enough with the BS, you knew all along that everyone needs to wear masks". You keep changing your song everyday.

Weird how he didn't discuss using Italian hospital footage and passing it off as NY hospitals all in order to create panic and chaos. Anyone at CBS know who would do such a thing?
