I think Fauci is full of shit. If I came up with the idea of wearing 2 masks before he did, you know he's a fucking idiot.Originally Posted by Phil B.
And why not 3 or 4 masks? He'll probably recommend that soon.
The government can pay me a lot less I can come up with the same ridiculous recommendations.

Immediately expand emergency relief and exercise the Defense Production
Act.
It’s past time to fix America’s COVID-response supply shortage problems for good.
The United States will immediately address urgent supply gaps, which will require
monitoring and strengthening supply chains, while also steering the distribution of
supplies to areas with the greatest need. As new vaccines, testing protocols, and
treatments are developed, they will also need to be manufactured in sufficient
supply. To respond to this unprecedented operational challenge, the President is
immediately expanding emergency relief by giving state and local governments
the support they need. To make vaccines, tests, Personal Protective Equipment
(PPE), and other critical supplies available for the duration of the pandemic,
the President has directed the use of all available legal authorities, including the
Defense Production Act (DPA), instructing departments and agencies to expand
the availability of critical supplies, to increase stockpiles so that PPE is available to
Goal 4

be used in the recommended safe manner, and to start to fill all supply shortfalls
immediately. To expand emergency relief and strengthen the supply chain, the
government will:
Increase emergency funding to states and bolster the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) response. The President has issued a Presidential
Memorandum entitled Extend Federal Support to Governors’ Use of National Guard
to Respond to COVID-19 and to Increase Reimbursement and other Assistance Provided
to States, directing FEMA to fully reimburse states for the cost of National Guard
personnel and emergency supplies, including emergency supplies like PPE for
schools and child care providers.
Fill supply shortfalls by invoking the Defense Production Act (DPA). The United
States is taking immediate action to fill supply shortfalls for vaccination supplies,
testing supplies, and PPE. The President issued Executive Order A Sustainable Public
Health Supply Chain which directs agencies to fill supply shortfalls using all available
legal authorities, including the DPA, and the United States has identified twelve
immediate supply shortfalls that will be critical to the pandemic response, including
shortages in the dead-space needle syringes available to administer the vaccine.
The President has directed relevant agencies to exercise all appropriate authorities,
including the DPA, to accelerate manufacturing, delivery, and administration to meet
shortfalls in these twelve categories of critical supplies, including taking action to
increase the availability of supplies like N95 masks, isolation gowns, nitrile gloves,
polymerase chain reaction (PCR) sample collection swabs, test reagents, pipette
tips, laboratory analysis machines for PCR tests, high-absorbency foam swabs,
nitrocellulose material for rapid antigen tests, rapid test kits, low dead-space
needles and syringes, and all the necessary equipment and material to accelerate the
manufacture, delivery, and administration of COVID-19 vaccine.
Identify and solve urgent COVID-19 related supply gaps and strengthen the supply
chain. The A Sustainable Public Health Supply Chain executive order also directs
federal agencies to fill supply shortfalls using all available legal authorities. The
federal government will focus on the near-term goal of building a stable, secure, and
resilient supply chain with increased domestic manufacturing in four key critical
sectors:
Ɇ Antigen and molecular-based testing;
Ɇ PPE and durable medical equipment;
Ɇ Vaccine development and manufacturing; and
Ɇ Therapeutics and key drugs.

The federal government will immediately focus on procuring supplies that will
be critical to control the spread of COVID-19 by initiating contracts, entering into
purchase commitments, making investments to produce supplies and expanding
manufacturing capacity.
Secure the pandemic supply chain and create a manufacturing base in the United
States. To respond more effectively to this crisis, and ensure that the United States
is able to respond more quickly and efficiently to the next pandemic, we need a
resilient, domestic public health industrial base. The U.S. Government will not only
secure supplies for fighting the COVID-19 pandemic, but also build toward a future,
flexible supply chain and expand an American manufacturing capability where
the United States is not dependent on other countries in a crisis. To this end, A
Sustainable Public Health Supply Chain directs the development of a new Pandemic
Supply Chain Resilience Strategy.
Improve distribution and expand availability of critical materials. After conducting
a review of existing COVID-19 and related pandemic supply chain distribution plans
and working in consultation with state and regional compacts, the United States will
coordinate distribution plans, prioritizing areas of highest-risk and highest need, and
set up a structure to improve the distribution of critical materials. To work toward
expanding the affordability and accessibility of supplies, A Sustainable Public Health
Supply Chain directs the Department of Defense (DOD), HHS, and Department
of Homeland Security (DHS) to develop recommendations to address the pricing
of COVID-19 supplies. The federal government will also reduce the opacity of the
market for critical supplies and supply chains by clearly and rapidly communicating
with states, health care providers, and manufacturers about federal interventions.
Safely reopen schools, businesses, and travel, while protecting workers.
Reopening schools, businesses, travel, and our economy will require major, unified
federal investments in rapid testing, an expanded rapid response public health
workforce, clear guidance and protections, and support for people to stay home
when they are infected to stop the spread of COVID-19. At the same time that the
United States takes immediate steps to achieve an overall decrease in COVID-19
spread, it will also support the safe operation of schools, businesses, and travel. To
protect workers and safely reopen, schools, businesses, and travel, the United States
will:
Goal 5

Implement a national strategy to support safely reopening schools. The United
States is committed to ensuring that students and educators are able to resume safe,
in-person learning as quickly as possible, with the goal of getting a majority of K-8
schools safely open in 100 days. The President issued Executive Order Supporting the
Reopening and Continuing Operation of Schools and Early Childhood Education Providers
which directs a national strategy for safely reopening schools, including requiring
the Departments of Education and HHS to provide guidance on safe reopening
and operating, and to develop a Safer Schools and Campuses Best Practices
Clearinghouse to share lessons learned and best practices from across the country.
Presidential Memorandum Extend Federal Support to Governors’ Use of National Guard
to Respond to COVID-19 and to Increase Reimbursement and other Assistance Provided to
States restores full reimbursement for eligible costs necessary to support safe school
reopening through the FEMA Disaster Relief Fund and the President has called on
Congress to provide at least $130 billion in dedicated funding to schools, $350 billion
in flexible state and local relief funds that will help districts avoid lay-offs and close
budget gaps, and additional resources so that schools can safely reopen, including
funds to implement screening testing. The Administration will release a handbook
that helps schools and local leaders implement the precautions and strategies
necessary for safe reopening. It will also work with states and local school districts
to support screening testing in schools, including working with states to ensure an
adequate supply of test kits.
Support safe operations at child care centers and at-home providers. With
enrollments down and costs up due to COVID-19 precautions, child care providers
are struggling to stay afloat while providing vital services to their communities.
Due to increased costs and lower enrollment, a recent survey of child care
providers showed that most child care providers expect that they will close within
a few months without relief, or are uncertain how long they can stay open.1
If not
addressed, child care providers will close and millions of parents will be left to make
devastating choices between caring for their children and working to put food on the
table. President Biden has called on Congress to provide $25 billion in emergency
stabilization to support hard-hit child care providers through the pandemic. These
funds would help providers pay rent, utilities, and payroll, as well as cover pandemicrelated costs like personal protective equipment, ventilation supplies, smaller group
sizes, and alterations to physical spaces that improve safety. The President has also
called on Congress to provide $15 billion to help families struggling to afford child
care.

Support equitable reopening and operation in higher education. College enrollment
for high school graduates was down more than 20% in 2020 compared to 2019, and
students from low-income families are nearly twice as likely to report canceling their
plans to attend college. Reopening and keeping colleges open is critical to ensuring
that all Americans have a shot at a college credential — but it must be done safely, to
protect the health of students, faculty, staff, and the broader community. To support
colleges through the pandemic, President Biden has requested that Congress provide
an additional $35 billion in emergency stabilization funds for higher education.
Protect workers and issue stronger worker safety guidance. It is critical that the
federal government protect the health and safety of America’s workers and take swift
action to prevent workers from contracting COVID-19 in the workplace. The President
issued Executive Order Protecting Worker Health and Safety which directs the
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to issue updated guidance
on COVID-19 worker protections. It also directs OSHA and the Mine Safety and
Health Administration (MSHA) to consider whether emergency temporary standards,
including with respect to mask-wearing, are necessary. President Biden is taking
steps to cover workers not typically covered by OSHA or MSHA by directing agencies
like the Department of Transportation to keep workers safe. He has also called
on Congress to extend and expand emergency paid leave; to allow OSHA to issue
standards covering a broad set of workers, like many public workers on the frontlines;
to provide additional funding for worker health and safety enforcement, and to
provide grant funding for organizations to help keep vulnerable workers healthy and
safe from COVID-19.
Provide guidance and support to safely open businesses. To maintain safe
operations during the pandemic, businesses need to know how to change their
practices to protect employees and customers. As the conditions of the pandemic
continue to evolve and more Americans get vaccinated, the business community
needs clear information from the federal government on what to expect and how to
adapt their operations. Many businesses affected by the pandemic–particularly the
smallest ones–need additional support to adjust their physical spaces and purchase
PPE and supplies. The United States will immediately work to prioritize funds under
the recent COVID relief package to the companies hardest hit by COVID-19 and in
compliance with public health restrictions, ensuring that small businesses have the
funds they need to operate safely. Further, the Small Business Administration will
work with the Department of Labor to disseminate updated OSHA guidance on
worker safety and support businesses in implementing the updated guidance.

Promote Safe Travel. Ensuring that people can safely travel will be critical for families
and to jumpstarting the economy, which is why the President issued an executive
order that requires mask-wearing on certain public modes of transportation and
at ports of entry to the United States. For international air travel, Executive Order
Promoting COVID-19 Safety in Domestic and International Travel requires a recent
negative COVID-19 test result prior to departure and quarantine on arrival, consistent
with CDC guidelines. The Executive Order also directs agencies to develop options
for expanding public health measures for domestic travel and cross-border land and
sea travel and calls for incentives to support and encourage compliance with CDC
guidelines on public transportation.

Protect those most at risk and advance equity, including across racial, ethnic
and rural/urban lines.
The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed and exacerbated severe and pervasive health
inequities among communities defined by race, ethnicity, geography, disability,
sexual orientation, gender identity, and other factors. Addressing this pandemic’s
devastating toll is both a moral imperative and pragmatic policy. The federal
government will address disparities in rates of infection, illness and death. Each of
the goals of this National Strategy include comprehensive actions that will address
these disparities and advance equity. In addition, the United States will:
Establish the COVID-19 Health Equity Task Force. The President issued Executive
Order Ensuring an Equitable Pandemic Response and Recovery which establishes a
high-level task force to address COVID-19 related health and social inequities and
help coordinate an equitable pandemic response and recovery. The Task Force will
convene national experts on health equity and provide recommendations on how to
mitigate COVID-19 health inequities.
Increase data collection and reporting for high risk groups. The fragmented
and limited availability of data by race, ethnicity, geography, disability and other
demographic variables delays recognition of risk and a targeted response. President
Biden issued the Executive Order Ensuring a Data-Driven Response to COVID-19 and
Future High-Consequence Public Health Threats directing federal agencies to expand
Goal 6

their data infrastructure to increase collection and reporting of health data for
high risk populations, while reaffirming data privacy. Using these data, the federal
government will identify high-risk communities, track resource distribution and
evaluate the effectiveness of the response. Finally, HHS will optimize data collection
from public and private entities to increase the availability of data by race, ethnicity,
geography, disability, and other demographic variables, as feasible.
Ensure equitable access to critical COVID-19 PPE, tests, therapies and vaccines.
The continued surge of COVID-19 highlights the critical importance of meaningful
access to PPE, tests, therapies, and vaccines to prevent spread and reduce illness
and death in high-risk populations and settings. The federal government will center
equity in its COVID-19 response, providing PPE, tests, vaccines, therapeutics and
other resources in a fair and transparent way. A targeted, stakeholder- and datainformed vaccination communication campaign will be launched to encourage
vaccination in all communities. Additionally, the CDC will work with states and
localities to update their pandemic plans. Finally, through prioritizing diverse and
inclusive representation in clinical research and strengthening enforcement of antidiscrimination requirements, the federal government will increase access to effective
COVID-19 care and treatment.
Expand access to high quality health care. The federal government will work to
expand affordable coverage to increase access to care during this pandemic, and the
Task Force will provide recommendations to align federal incentives with improved
clinical outcomes. Specific actions include efforts to increase funding for community
health centers, provide greater assistance to safety net institutions, strengthen
home- and community-based services, expand mental health care, and support care
and research on the effects of long COVID.
Expand the clinical and public health workforce, including community-based
workers. In order to assure equitable PPE distribution, testing, contact tracing,
social support for quarantine and isolation and vaccination, there must be sufficient
workforce to serve the communities in greatest need. The federal government will
augment the health workforce, including with community based workers, as outlined
in Goal Three above, to help fill this critical gap. The federal government will create a
United States Public Health Workforce Program of new community based workers to
assist with testing, tracing and vaccination. Additionally, it will deploy federal workers
to assist with the COVID-19 response in under-resourced areas.

Strengthen the social service safety net to address unmet basic needs. With
millions of families already struggling pre-pandemic to meet basic needs, including
food, housing and transportation, COVID-19 has exacerbated these challenges.
These challenges contribute to difficulties by many to adhere to public health
guidance regarding social distancing and quarantine/isolation. This Administration
is committed to addressing these needs in multiple ways, including providing paid
sick leave, child care support, and rental assistance, with requested Congressional
appropriations. Additionally, it will undertake agency actions to designate COVID-19
health equity leads and extend eligibility and enrollment flexibilities for select
programs during the pandemic, as well work with community-based, multi-sector
organizations to align health and social interventions.
Support communities most at-risk for COVID-19. The federal government is
committed to supporting populations that are most vulnerable to COVID-19. Whether
residing in congregate settings (such as prisons, nursing and group homes, and
homeless shelters), serving as essential workers, living as a person with a disability,
or bearing the burden of chronic medical conditions, these vulnerable populations are
disproportionately composed of people of color. The CDC will develop and update
clear public health guidance for such high-risk populations and settings to further
minimize the risk of COVID infection, and work with states to update their pandemic
plans to incorporate such guidance as necessary.
That's what happens with black folk and ghays are holding mass protests. I told you that from the beginning. It's like liberals think we suddenly forget about that.
