“Cloth masks aren’t going to provide a lot of protection, that’s the bottom line,” Gottlieb told host Margaret Brennan on Sunday morning.

“This is an airborne illness,” he continued. “We now understand that, and a cloth mask is not going to protect you from a virus that spreads through airborne transmission.”

Why are these "public health experts" now letting the truth come out after 2 years of COVID theater?

I've seen stories since March of 2020 that cloth masks are not the 'ideal' but better than nothing.

Nothing new in this.

Finally admitting what the evidence showed two years ago.

There is plenty “new” in it. Try saying exactly what Gottlieb said on social media and let us know what happens.

Yes, but I and others were routinely accused of trying to kill people by liberals for saying exactly what Gottlieb said.

The sad thing is that it is basic common sense and doesn’t take much upstairs to figure out that cloth masks won’t stop COVID. Yet we’ve had 2 years of mask theater with no end in sight thanks to panicked liberal mask cultists.

Yes, I was accused of all of that as well. I doubt we will get any apologies or even admittance that we were right all along.. I also still expect people to continue to support mask mandates in spite of this. Sadly.

Maybe in another 2 years they might actually admit that Trump was right about so many things having to do with Covid?

Where have you been for the past two years? It's always been noted that cloth masks aren't the best weapon, but they are better than nothing.

No news here, folks.

Better than nothing


They either work or they don't. It's binary. You either catch covid or not there is no in between. May as well be wearing one made out of old screen door.

This was put out way before Covid https://www.sfgate.com/california-wi...r-13399569.php

1. Scarves, bandannas, tissues, and anything not marked N95 or better (N100, P99, P100, etc.) are not helpful. "Surgical masks that trap small particles are designed to filter air coming out of the wearer's mouth and do not provide a good seal to prevent inhalation of small particles or gases in smoke. " (CA Dept. of Public Health).



So, who's lying?

Yawn. Your DNC response is noted. Reality and thousands of PSAs telling everyone to wear a cloth mask or die contradict your claim.
