Philip Klein notes that Fauci couldn’t stop himself from laughing here while half-heartedly spinning the new rules, which have been attacked even by experts as absurdly onerous. He knows they’re garbage so he’s keen to reassure Savannah Guthrie that they’re constantly being updated and relaxed as more data is gathered. Just be patient! The CDC might acknowledge they’re ridiculous soon enough!

An infectious-disease scientist at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Anthony Fauci’s agency, spoke with me about the CDC guidance on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media. “With staff and parents vaccinated, there is no reason to continue incredibly strict mitigation efforts or put severe limitations on activities,” they said. “Charitably,” the scientist, who has an expertise in respiratory viruses, continued, “masking kids at camp outdoors is simply virtue signaling. Requiring kids to continuously wear masks at camps, even while outside playing in the heat, when it provides little additional protection is unfair and cruel to our children. Considering that children are at incredibly low risk for developing severe illness, the minimal benefits of mask wearing do not outweigh the substantial costs of discouraging children to be active and their overall health.”…

The CDC is a truly reprehensible organization. What Democrats and the "scientists" at the CDC are doing to little kids is nothing less than child abuse.

How can people who support this nonsense sleep at night?

It's sad to see young kids running around outdoors with masks. There is no reason for it. We were told it was so they didn't bring the virus home to grandma or their parents. But now those people are all vaccinated. And we still have kids breathing through filthy damp masks. Parents need to take a stand.

These poor children are going to be traumatized by this pandemic if we show such fear and make them wear masks .

The only thing worse than masking kids and keeping them away from their peers, is subjecting them to covid vaccine trials.

The amount of parents who fell over themselves, absolutely giddy to make their kids be lab rats, made me sick.

It seems that Fauci insistently persists in trying to stretch his 15-minutes in the spotlight, to 20-minutes! Instead, whatever credibility and celebrity Fauci may have once had, is rapidly diminishing.

The main reason why I was I initially opposed to mask mandates was because I knew once the door was open to require them for businesses, kids would also be forced to wear them at school all day (not to mention the lack of evidence that they would even work for covid). Some people told me I was being ridiculous and that that would never happen.

Not only are they now required for kids at school all day long, they are also required while they play sports and now even while being outdoors at camp and even after high risk adults have been vaccinated. I despise the people making these decisions and those who support them. This would all end if we all stood up and said, “no”. Unfortunately, too many people have been brainwashed and happily go along with every stupid measure that comes our way.

The "woke" insanity is running rampant at this stage, and we are seeing the result.

The question is "How can we drive a stake through its heart ... and bury it, once and for all?"

And the unfortunate fact here is that all of us, from either side, will be treading on soft, dangerous ground.

Only 30% of Americans have been fully vaccinated at the moment. Be patient, we're on the right track, but we aren't there yet.

In my opinion, the people who are responsible for promoting such garbage are nothing short of criminals.
