Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's top infectious disease expert, said “community engagement” will be the one thing that helps boost support among Americans to get a coronavirus vaccine, if and when one becomes available. “We've got to engage the community to get out there and be people who are boots on the ground – who look like and are like the people they are trying to convince – the importance of getting vaccinated, particularly in this era of anti-vax and anti-science,” he said.

Hospital numbers are patients ADMITTED FOR ANY REASON that happen to test positive! Deaths are from EVERY REASON & put down covid-19 if they test positive! paper and fabric masks do nothing! This fake data and fake pandemic has to stop, now! It’s about the election.

SylvesterTurner is the virus in Houston and we’ve had it for four years.

Thank you sir!

This started as 2 weeks and it’s become 5 months. Local leaders clearly don’t have a clue and continue to allow mass gatherings which conveniently occurred right before the spike. Now you want to close again due to your lack of control. Why are you killing the economy?

Or....you can not protest.

They act like COVID just arrived and was extremely contagious and infectious.

They kept you inside before the 5g jump then they let you out so you think you're spreading it from coming outside when infact you're just having a allergic reaction to the radiation from using the new starlink upgrade.

He shared the proposal after speaking at a large gathering on Saturday where there was zero social disdancing and poor mask compliance (pictures provided below). The mayor is a fraud that needs to resign. Don’t let him fool you!

Duty Takes Charge! Virus Spread by Sad, Shameful, Foolish, Selfishly Disrespectful & Reckless Who Don't Value Lives, Well-Being, or Livelihood of Others; Americans, So Spoiled that short-term adjustments like wearing masks & social distancing is hardship & 'sacrifice' Won't Make!

Does everyone remember the name of Sheila Jackson-Leigh from Houston Texas? 😏

Impatience, selfishness, and overconfidence is bringing out the worst in people of this country.

Houston Mayor is way smarter than Texas Governor

But then, he's an idiot.

Probably should have kept the George Floyd funeral to less than 10 people like everyone else had to....

Shut down another 2 weeks just shut down Houston!

Asshole says what?

Ohh no, Texas is fucked realDonaldTrump
