Fauci: If We Can Safely Shop At The Grocery Store, We Can Safely Vote In Person
[HotAir] It’s not the first time that Dr. Anthony Fauci has made this argument, but maybe it will be the first time it will break through the political/media noise over mail-in voting. The head of the NIAID said a week ago that healthy people who stick to mask and social-distancing protocols could safely cast their ballots at their local precincts, although that remark got understandably overshadowed by his cautious endorsement of reopening schools.

This time, ABC’s Deborah Roberts asked specifically about voting as part of a NatGeo panel she moderated yesterday. Fauci insists that the issue of in-person voting is no more fraught than grocery shopping for healthy voters, although high-risk voters might want to use mailed ballots “the way we have done so for years” (via Katie Pavlich):

#4 With everyone vulnerable who would've died from the Flu already dead and excess mortality below average, there's no reason to even keep masks or the lockdown for that matter.

#5 Met a new neighbor yesterday...probably late-50's...no mask and we shook hands like civilized, sane humans.

We just need to convince all of the lackey brown-nosers and tattle-tales out there who want to feel important and self-righteous for five seconds by scolding others for not wearing a mask.

#6 It's a religion, and its messiah is resurrected every time the press is having a slow day. You can't fight that, don't bother trying. Just move on.

#7 Most important part of the message: It's safe for Jack Nicholson and Spike Lee to attend bassetbaw games.
