Leading infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci changed course on Friday, saying it may be time to impose a nationwide face mask rule. 'Well, if people are not wearing masks, then maybe we should be mandating it,” he told CNN.

October 24, 2020 -- Leading infectious disease expert Anthony Fauci, MD, changed course on Friday, saying it may be time to impose a nationwide face mask rule.

"There's going to be a difficulty enforcing it, but if everyone agrees that this is something that's important and they mandate it and everybody pulls together and says, you know, we're going to mandate it but let's just do it. I think that would be a great idea to have everybody do it uniformly," he said.

If that 49% rate of mask wearing continues and states keep lifting social distancing restrictions, IHME computer models show about 1 million Americans will die by the end of February, according to a study published in. If states reimpose restrictions when daily deaths exceed 8 per 1 million people in the population and face mask usage remains at 49%, the number of deaths could reach 511,373 by the end of February, the study says.

This has been a disaster letting THIS fool change his mind to run and ruin our lives and lifestyle- He is owned by big pharmaceutical companies-

A little too late for this... should’ve had a mandate in place months ago. And coming from the current administration. More would have listened, instead of making it political🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️

Agree

Hey Fauci, please QUIT! You do not know what you are talking about!

Well it's about time

Do children want to wear their galoshes when they play in the rain? Not usually...we have to help them remember because they don’t think about getting sick. Or all the other kids and grow ups that get their colds...

Cont. Now your waiting to see if they make it or not. They only have 50/50 chance. Protect your family.

Cont. it’s your job to protect your self and your family. Not any one else. We all know it’s out there and we can protect ourself and our family. Do it for your family and protect them. You look at it like I do. I give this to a family, I just drove my car drunk, hit them.

Cont, I was like everyone else, (I am not wearing a mask ) well let me explain. Look at your family, you love them. You wear it for them. What if your grandma never goes out and you come in and she gets this from you and she dies and you live.? What about you children?

Seen as people are being childish over use of mask. Common sense is being over looked. Folks ask your self why you use a seat belt? Why you don’t drink and drive? If it wasn’t the law would you not use your safety belt? Would you jump in your car and drive drunk?

Yes!

If you wind up sick with COVID-19 it is the very experts you are trashing who may save your life! Who is going to treat you? Your lawyer, accountant, or plumber? I give these experts a lot of credit for listening to your criticism and nastiness and STILL treating you!

No one likes wearing a mask however it does help to protect yourself and others even with cold and flu viruses

How often do you wear your disposable face mask before you throw it away or how often do you wash your reusable face mask before you wash it? Maybe lessons on that would be more helpful.

Hell no.

Yes!MANDATE MASKS!!😷

We have a few idiots riding in cars alone with one on.

Everyone is in Florida for the most part when necessary!

Fay I needs to go! He’s become too power hungry and lost his perspective!! His glory days are over! Bring on the true scientists, not a political person!!

BobDohertyACP Trump was right. He’s a disaster.

This little video may help encourage others to wear masks based on the additional benefits:

Of course...nothing like 300 million nebulizers to stop the spread of a virus...Fauci is such an ass 🤡

It is time to stop talking Doctor.

Only Modi in India can do it ....by love, persuasion , or the stick....its your choice.

Good for Fauci!

F*ck masks

All are helpless and under too much stress. Can't make a clear and long term decision

This shit is not expert,it is against humanity!

Um we’ve had a mask mandate for months, guess what? They don’t work...

He needs to step down,

He’s the only sign of intelligent life in the WH right now. 👍

echoing sleepy Joe’s dementia idea!

Screw him!

People are doing their own thing and cause the widespread infection. Now it's gonna come down to mandatory mask rule. Why do you need a govt mandate to tell you, you should wear a mask.

No

You think? 🤦🏻‍♀️

Should have done that month's ago. Good luck!

Not going to happen...

Fauci is a FRAUD. Says the one who didn’t wear his mask after he threw out the first pitch. hypocrite

Sick fuck !!
