Rand Paul KO’s Fauci in the first round

Here are Fauci's comments when Patty Murray gave him an actual chance to respond without being interrupted. He didn't bad-mouth Paul to get his point across. Fauci has class, Paul doesn't even have a passing familiarity with it. More of the conversation at the link.

"When you have a variant, you have an immunity that you get … against a wild type, you get a certain level of antibody that’s specific for a particular viral strain. If there’s a circulating variant, you don’t necessarily have it. You have some spillover immunity, to be sure, but you diminish by anywhere from two- to eightfold, the protection. So the point I’m saying is that there are variants now circulating.

The point that Senator Paul was making was that if you look at wild type only, there is some clear-cut credence to what he’s saying. But we are living right now in a situation where we’re having a dominance of ... the original U.K. [variant]. We have a very troublesome variant in New York City. ... We’ve got two variants in California. ... And we have a number of others. So we’re not dealing with a static situation of the same virus. That was the only point I’m making."

Right, but all the variants we know of now current vaccines and antibodies protect us from. he forgets to mention that and is playing and endless "what if" game. Given his past and admitted lies, I would seek confirmation of any claim he makes
 
So, it looks like people who have been vaccinated can shed virus. Their rate of shedding is lower but it it not zero so Rand is wrong again.

Lack of evidence is not evidence of it not happening. Fauci wasn't the one making the specious claim. Rand Paul was.
have confirmed this with all the vaccines show a significant to near zero viral load in the vaccinated persons nose for example.
it's not just "lower' it's "near zero, and that is not enough to infect
 
Fauci was wearing a N95 mask covered by a surgical mask. N95 can in fact stop the wearer from contracting the virus. As Paul stated there has been no cases of vaccinated people transmitting the virus. I'm fully vaccinated and I continue to wear a surgical mask. I no longer wear a N95 mask. I wear a surgical mask to put others that I encounter more at ease not because its doing anyone any real good. I'm quite use to wearing a surgical mask all day as I did it everyday at work in the operating room. So its no big deal for me.

if you have antibodies or the vaccine and waited the incubation period wearing a mask is theater, like paul said. Also those surgical masks as you know are supposed to be one time use. not all day/multiday use.


I wear the oakley mask with the filter removed where required. I do not wear one outside ever.

I have a couple of these, I take out the white filter. so much nicer to breath. lol and again I wear it in as few places as possible.

Somehow I have never coughed through my nose.

Let's see your science that near zero is the same as zero? I find your argument a little specious after you have spent so much time attacking masks. Masks reduce risk but don't eliminate it and based on the percentages listed in the article about viral load, masks are actually more effective than the vaccine when it comes to reducing viral load.
 
some one of these CDC or Fauci dweebs was trying to sell the fact that the nasal viral load can still be sufficient
even after being vaccinnated to infect others
Sorry I cant source it, (i heard it in passing) -but they are just making up "what ifs" now to justify WTF they want



It is pretty loco to see all these medical professionals eschew their training and knowledge.

I disagree, with everything here. you can see the efficacy here is very high. So high that fauci's stance in untenable from a medical science position.

I havent attacked masks" i wear them, and I understand they stop spittle. They dont stop aerosol,or contact on surface
What i attack is the notion masks are gonna protect you -they dont, they MAY help not to infect others-
"near zero" isnt going to infect others however

some patients will continue to test positive for COVID-19 via a PCR test but have a very low viral load.
These patients do not need to stay hospitalized or isolated as their bodies have successfully fought off the virus and they are no longer contagious to others.

And yet, I saw a report today that 5% of hospitalizations in MN are from B.1.1.7 which is about the current variant infection rate in the state. SO much for the claim there is no evidence.

The efficacy is high but it isn't non existent. 70-80% reduction in shedding from a medical standpoint doesn't mean you don't need to worry at all about it.

Mask protect you by stopping 80-95% of aerosols. Is 20% of a normal viral load low enough to no longer worry about infection at all?

It's very very high, unheard of high. And please back your claim up with a link, I would like to read that.

masks do not stop aerosol -"aerosol" in terms of suspended particles in air - typical masks (surgical) are not sealed around the mouth and nose.

I have no idea about "20%" the terms used are near zero.. get vaxxed and ditch the snot guard

"Theater" is every individual wearing MAGA gear after November 3, 2020.
