He can shoot the virus with Liberty.
Looks like Fauci's being thrown under the bus. I can't say I'm sympathetic when he's been standing beside Trump through almost all of this shit.
You mean doing his job as a virologist during a pandemic? Yeah, what a cunt.
What an absoloutely ignorant statement.
I'm just hoping they finally put out the PBS documentary that has been following him round the whole time I've known him. I've interviewed him once a year since 2016 and they were following him the whole time so maybe I'll make an appearance.
The very opposite, he's been giving good advice (and correcting the dickhead in chief) whilst the white house has been trying to get him sacked and giving him shit at every opportunity. He's about the only one not making it a political issue.
Yeah, I've also interviewed Birx at those same events and she's been a massive disappointment during all this.
No you said 'if he's been on the Trump team' which he literally is because he works for a Department that serves the President...
Ah yeah cool I should definitely be able to guess what you meant when you type something different. That's on me.
Works. So he doesn't want to speak out of turn (even if the President was to suggest something dangerous like drinking bleach or injecting sunlight, taking unproven medication, not endorsing face masks) to protect his job. As an expert, he's diminished any role he has to a guy awkwardly saying nothing in the background.
Fuck off Giggles. You spoke from a position of complete ignorance. Got called ignorant and now you’re crying how it’s unfair your being judged on the words you use on a text based forum. Stop being a baby. Go have an IPA and a nap.
Moving on from Giggles having a breakdown.
Cuomo has put out an absolutely bizarre poster, I'm not sure why but it's incredible.
My personal highlights:
We’ll let you have the last word there so phonics. It’s about all I expected, but whatever keeps you coherent.
"Did you hear? There's been another suicide at the Boyfriend Cliff."
They did punt him off to the side. He gives his own briefings but the ones where he was present with Trump, he didn't correct him. That's my problem. That's a bigger platform and it leads to dumb cunts drinking bleach. I guess you can't have a President looking weak in an election season.
You've literally dreamed up a reality separate from the one that happened. He wasn't even in the room when he said that, Birx was and said 'thats not true' and got cut off.
He was binned off weeks ago by the looks of it. Hasn't advised Trump since 2nd June apparently.
Yeah I'm not sure how you can see 'Trump is anonymously briefing against Fauci' and think 'Well he shouldn't have agreed with Trump so much'
I hold my hands up on that one. I forgot Birx was the one in the disinfectant briefing.
If that's correct it leaves us with some pretty ugly choices to make.
1) Social distance forever and accept the deaths.
2) lock down the entire world (good luck) for 2 months and drive it out of existence.
3) get a vaccine and hold fire until you have enough to vaccinate absolutely fucking everyone and do so at record speed (or the 80% needed for herd immunity)
4) Crack on and vaccinate the most vulnerable 4 - 6 times a year.
Although immunity being that short may fuck the idea of a vaccine anyway if there's various strains knocking about.

Andrew Cuomo being permitted to give it large about federal pandemic performance is NARRATIVE gone wild.
Hold the fuck on @Giggles, we have the same rules on letting yanks in as you do.
That map isn’t right in Dukes link. The can waltz in here as the quarantine is advised rather than required. And nobody tells dem muricans what to do.
They’re getting a fierce hard time everywhere though
They're still running a base in the Northern Territory. Couple of them tested positive recently but it is all isolated to their massive base they have up there.
Four months since the lockdown began and we've decided masks are now a must. Yev must have exploded.
That's got to twist the knife on the high street a little too.
Is it to coax people back into feeling safe in shops (possibly because other things are about to be relaxed)? Why else would you bother introducing it now?
It's going to be lovely having my beard all up in my mouth when I'm shopping
Sydney are basically at the start of their second wave.
QLD Health are so good at contact tracing that they are now calling hot spots in Sydney ahead of NSW Health.

People's Republic of Queensland will end the year with the NRL and AFL competitions being based here AND locking up all sorts of naughty trespassers. Lolol
https://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/nat...14-p55bw5.htmlPeople breaching public health directions in Queensland will soon face up to six months in jail under a strengthening of powers by the government.
Deputy Premier and Health Minister Steven Miles announced on Tuesday that the changes would come before Parliament this week to boost the maximum penalty, which appeared to not be "sufficient".

If people are locked down at home and heavily social distancing when they're out it reduces the spread through that. As soon as you start opening up then those things lessen, so having the masks to counterbalance that seems sensible. Possibly a bit of your first point too, which isn't a terrible thing.
Yeah, up here in the barren north at least every supermarket I have been in is business as usual and about 1 in 100 people is wearing a mask. The only one round here going through the motions is Tesco with a geezer stood on the door ushering people in but once you're in it's out the window.
Surprised they aren't saying masks in pubs. Probably saving that for NYE, based on the super reactive politics of the Renford Rejects.
Wearing a mask is not that bad ffs. What an overreaction for a few weeks of inconvenience.
It won't be a few weeks, though, will it? If the logic is to wear masks now (but not three months ago), I can't see any logic that would suggest we should ever not wear them again. After all, they stop the spread of disease, and that's a good thing, right?
Yeah, I don't get the opposition. It's a simple thing and it's not for nothing. And Jimmy's right. We need to adopt the same mask culture of Asia. It'll come in handy through cold and flu season and, by the sounds of it, this virus is unlikely to vanish.
