    “No I think so, I think you’re going to probably see that as we go along and as more people get vaccinated,” Fauci told ABC’s George Stephanopoulos. “The CDC will be, almost in real-time George, updating their recommendations and their guidelines. We do need to start being more liberal as we get more people vaccinated.”

    “As you get more people vaccinated, the number of cases per day will absolutely go down. We’re averaging about 43,000 a day, we’ve got to get it much, much lower than that. When that gets lower, the risk of any infection indoor or outdoor diminishes dramatically,” Fauci added. 

    Fauci’s comments come after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shifted its guidance last month to allow fully vaccinated individuals to go maskless outdoors, aside from in crowded settings. However, the agency still recommends that fully vaccinated individuals should wear masks indoors around unvaccinated people from multiple households and in indoor public spaces such as movie theaters, malls, museums and restaurants.

    “We’re at the point right now where we can start lifting these ordinances and allowing people to resume normal activity, certainly outdoors we shouldn’t be putting limits on gatherings anymore, we should be encouraging people to go outside,” Gottlieb said Sunday on CBS’ Face the Nation. “In the states where prevalence is low, vaccination rates are high and we have good testing in place and we’re identifying infections, I think we can start lifting these restrictions indoors as well on a broad basis.”

    See this right here.......these are the facts.  People who bitched about having their freedom taken away and who refuse to get a shot are just fucking brain dead. I used to think “how can I be this smart” in order to be politically correct but not any more......the people who don’t get that the vaccine gives them their freedom back have to have serious issues which realistically is very very sad.  Is this shit perfect right now.......probably not, bu it’s doing a pretty good fucking job.  If there’s seriously not something wrong with you - like for real - then get your heads out of your asses because it’s working and that has everything to do with the fucking brilliant doctors, scientists- whoever does this shit because I’m not smart enough to know that much - and nothing to do with politics and some to do with a president who knows how governments work. If you’re able to read this then you’re smart enough to know it’s the truth.

    and it's funny to me that people find the ketchup more offensive than the use of the american flag.

    maybe that's an american thing. at seriously every single hot dog stand in existence in the GWN you'll see ketchup, and you'll also see more people putting ketchup on it than mustard. 

    me? i put it all on. ketchup, mustard (sweet with heat is the best), relish, onions, etc). up here during Jets games you can buy a Jet dog that comes with freaking perogies on it.

    Never noticed that. I wasn’t the biggest barenaked ladies fan, though that song was hard to get away from for a bit. That and the one nobody should even attempt to sing.

    Didn’t even occur to me that could be offensive. Hotdog is about as American as it gets. It’s like putting a Mexican flag on a street taco. 
    Always thought I was in the minority using mustard and no ketchup. More common than I thought.

    I don't know why, but if I'm camping and do a hot dog with a smokie on it, instead of a hot dog, I always go mustard only.  But if it's regular hot dog I seem to need to Ketchup (or bbq sauce), miracle whip and mustard :)   I think the miracle whip is the Dutch in me, except I'm slightly broken and prefer it to mayonnaise.

    Not using ketchup on a hotdog is like 1 in 1000 here. Ketchup and mustard is the normal here:

    Eating a hot dog and supporting the industry making hot dogs happen, is what is "sick" and "wrong". Period.

    Based on today’s Fauci report regarding the low number of deaths and sickness this past flu season due to wearing masks will you wear one in the future during respiratory borne virus seasons or even from now on? 
    There should be a push to make "flu season" a period of mask wearing and social distancing. Maybe even have stricter rules for visiting elderly homes during this period etc.
