Scott gottlieb is another name. Bring him back as head of fda and put on task force. Excellent speaker, reasonable ideas

Zubin Damania would be much more effective at public health messaging.

Seems like an interesting cat...I don't know anything about him except what I just googled.

I mentioned Jha earlier...he is for spreading out doses more so as to get more first shots going. I think he's also written about releasing AZ for middle aged to younger people. He sees this as a race against the variants but remains optimistic.

It should be clear to everyone that Fauci loves the spotlight. He’s getting his face out there as much as possible with interviews and on talk shows. He’s probably planning on a book once this is all over to rake in the cash.

Why bother then? I’ll get the vaccine and go back to living a somewhat normal life, as will many others.

Exactly.

So you get your shot.

Can grandparents visit family? No.
Can you go out like normal? No.
Can you take the mask off? No.
Will teachers go back to school? No.

Sad part is, this isnt made up!!

Why get the shot again?

Surprised he said we may have to wear masks just until 2022. Why not for a decade or more to protect against COVID-19?

I think someone is being guardedly cautious about absolute zero risk, not a manageably low risk.
