So... you are saying here that 'Dr. Fauci's view = science', and any other view is 'a science-denier'. Correct? Have you ever used critical thinking skills?

Coronavirus is not alive. You can think of the virus more like 'seeds'. I honestly have no doubt that Anthony Fauci knows this. but is he an expert in the area of, say, laminar flow and the effects of different surfaces that would shape the dispersion pattern of these non-living particles? How does he determine that "BARS" are the problem and definitely not (for example) a GYM where people are intentionally breathing with force into typically open areas with no barriers to their intentionally forceful breathing? It's an unbiased question from an observer that views this quote as a far too simplistic analysis.

I have worked for over 3.5 decades as an engineer on the space program at Cape Canaveral Air Force station (retired this April). I used to sit on launch console, and I have been called an 'expert' on many different occasions. If someone can call ME an 'expert', I tend to be suspicious of that term.

I find Anthony Fauci to not be the unbiased expert source the media has made him out to be for these kinds of reasons. Being a doctor, he is an 'expert' in which specific areas? I actually created a term based on my observations of him early on: 'drift of expertise'. I believe we put too much faith in so-called 'experts'. Their areas of expertise are limited.

Here in New York State they found that the rate of infection at gyms is .06%!! At hair salons and barbershops it is .14%! The worst spreaders are the family gatherings. Can't wait to be in TV in a couple of months away from the idiocy of NYS!

When you add up Dr. Fauci's WARNING + 90% of ALL Medical Experts on TV + the front page of our local Newsrag saying "BE DILIGENT hospital CV cases RISING" - that = equals S C I E N CE - therefore disbelief of this SCIENCE = "denier" - big time! So, "laminar flow" is just vocabulary bragging.

Are you serious? We can’t go into a pool after dusk!! I am surprised they don’t have a mandatory curfew.

Tony's parties have been raided by local SWAT team, and Drug Squad every year since he has held them.
Best party in town!:icon_wink:
