Joe on LIVE right now. CNN FOX and MSNBC. Brilliant

Trump dominates this time period with press conferences and virus pressers.

Brilliant move by Joe. He’s spelling out the basics of all his plans.

So - Neck Gaiters - ARE okay????

It seems that one part of one small report months ago was misconstrued.
I was curious because of the number of football coaches I saw wearing them. I’d guess there’s a set list of what’s approved at least for NFL coaches to wear.


Any covering is better than none - that’s what I’m seeing

Save the Gaiters!
A small study prompted fears that neck gaiters could spread more virus droplets than they stop. But new research shows that those face coverings can protect just as well as other cloth masks.

A wave of alarmist reports on news sites and social media quickly followed. “Wearing a neck gaiter could be worse than wearing no mask at all,” read the headline in The Washington Post.

Even the study’s authors said their data had been misconstrued. “Our intent was not to say this mask doesn’t work, or never use neck gaiters,” said Martin Fischer, an associate research professor in the department of chemistry at Duke and a co-author of the study. “This was not the main part of the paper.”



But rather than speculate, Dr. Marr worked with Jin Pan, a Virginia Tech graduate student who studies biological particles, to test two types of gaiters using methods similar to those required by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health for testing masks.

“I’ve been recommending neck gaiters, and my kids wear neck gaiters,” Dr. Marr said. “There’s nothing inherent about a neck gaiter that should make it any worse than a cloth mask. It comes down to the fabric and how well it fits.”

FOX FIGHT! Chris Wallace goes after Dr. Atlas

So Dr. Atlas gave an interview saying that Trump will be fine, don’t panic, he’s healthy, they’ll make a full and fast recovery.

Wallace (paraphrased) “Look I’m going to take some heat for this but....Dr. Atlas has no experience as a epidemiologist. Follow the scientists. This is early on and Dr. Atlas can’t possibly have any information on their current condition. Follow the people with experience who don’t have a political axe to grind. Dr. Atlas is not one of those people.”

Boy that Ben Shapiro never fails to fail

Does Joe suspend his campaign?

Does Joe suspend his campaign?
This IS Joe we are talking about. He oozes class and decorum.
