Herr FauXi is at it again. Stating that a positive result on a test that has a heavy biased toward false positives equals an active infection and implies there are no treatment that when administered early prevent hospitalization.
Dr. Anthony Fauci Suggests Americans Should Consider Canceling Thanksgiving Joshua Caplan 15 Oct 2020
Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, suggested Thursday that Americans may have to cancel their Thanksgiving plans this year to help reduce the spread of the Chinese coronavirus.
A transcript is as follows:
Zitat NORAH O’DONNELL: What is your advice about Thanksgiving?
DR. ANTHONY FAUCI: I think people should be very careful and prudent about social gatherings, particularly when members of the family might be at a risk because of their age or underlying condition. You may have to bite the bullet and sacrifice that social gathering, unless you’re pretty certain that the people that you’re dealing with are not infected. Either they’ve been very recently tested, or they’re living a lifestyle in which they don’t have any interaction with anybody except you and your family.
Comrade Murphy, Dear leader of NJ agrees with FauXi
'We must be careful': Gov. Murphy discourages holiday gatherings as New Jersey COVID cases rise Thursday, October 15, 2020 6:36PM
TRENTON, New Jersey -- With another nearly 1,000 new coronavirus cases reported Thursday in New Jersey, state officials are discouraging large indoor holiday gatherings, including Thanksgiving dinner.
For many, it'll be a very different kind of holiday season. Sandy Kramer, of Mount Laurel, typically hosts 15 to 18 people at her Thanksgiving table.
"I do the turkey and the stuffing. My daughter does the rest," said Kramer.
But this year's crowd will be much smaller - just a few people.
"We always have a good time. But maybe next year," she said.
As the holidays approach, with COVID-19 numbers already on the rise, Gov. Phil Murphy says people need to prepare to hunker down for the holidays.
Murphy says people are taking precautions in public, but outbreaks are still being linked to indoor family gatherings.
"One thing that we must be careful of are indoor gatherings, which are increasingly becoming the starting points for outbreaks. Sadly, we are seeing more and more family gatherings as the sparks for these outbreaks," said Murphy.
Health officials say a traditional, large thanksgiving gathering can be dangerous.
"We urge you to not gather around the dining room table with anyone outside your immediate household. And if you do, to limit that reach to only a limited number of close relatives," said Murphy.
There's a concern at the county level as well. In Burlington County, the average number of daily new cases has tripled over the past month, and health officials urge people not to let their guard down.
"Kids are heading back to school and people are heading back to work, people are going to be inside more. We know that is a risk for an increased rate of transmission for all sorts of viruses," said County Health Officer Dr. Herb Conaway. "We're going to have to think about this and do a lot of public health messaging on this issue. Otherwise, we could see a very significant spike in the wake of Thanksgiving and then after that Christmas."
Murphy did say that schools are looking good, with 22 reported school outbreaks and 83 total cases linked to schools statewide.
Still, state health officials say this is not the year to travel for the holidays or have out of state visitors - even asking folks to consider bundling up and having Thanksgiving dinner outside.
"Murphy says people are taking precautions in public, but outbreaks are still being linked to indoor family gatherings."
DUH!!!
Any gathering where one person has the virus will be a "link." Any person who doesn't have antibodies to Covid is walking around as a potential "link." That's the reality we're all living under.
So what do we do?
Do our best to keep our risk low by associating with people who know and practice proper safety precautions. I don't care if a person's job is a Covid tester! They will only show up as a "link" if they've been careless and haven't followed the necessary safety precautions.
That's how science works. It has nothing to do with what we're doing together. Someone in our group of family or friends, must have the virus before any of us can be, or become, a link.
If no one has it? We're safe!
