⚠️I’m doubling down—@CDCgov most definitely made a *grave mistake* in May dropping mask rules for vaccinated & lending momentum to anti-maskera. I said it before, and I’ll say it again —@CDCDirector needs to reinstate the mask rules to fight #DeltaVariant ASAP! Video part 1: 🧵
2) My May 19th 2021 call out of the CDC continued… part 2…
3) Businesses should continue to maintain indoor mask mandates, even if CDC guidelines have not yet caught up. I expect CDC to slowly walk back their previous mask relaxation rules. But until then, must be vigilant about airborne transmission - mask, ventilate, air disinfection.
4) Mask versus intubation… for comparison.

RETRACTION of junk paper on masks & CO2 toxicity—hogwash study by Walach is now retracted based on bad science. Walach has now gotten fired from his university & 2 papers retracted in 1 month (his other anti-vax paper also retracted). Beware junk science. jamanetwork.com/journals/jamap… Image
2) Naturally, the Walach junk study on masks was anti-maskers’ dream paper to cite as reason not to mask. Aerosol scientists who specialize in the topic debunked it of course, but anti masker corners of the internet never heard the debunk. Hope the retraction kills the nonsense.
3) Did I try to warn folks about this nonsense CO2 mask study by Walach? Yes, over a week ago. I called it “complete horseshit” - and I was being polite.

#DeltaVariant is causing this #COVID19 surge across all 50 US states—even in heavily vaccinated ones. Vaccines definitely work, but we have to dispel the notion that 1 shot for 70% is enough. We likely need 85%+ double vaccinated coverage with 2x more contagious Delta. Stay safe. Image
2) the surge in #DeltaVariant is not surprising to anyone who has been paying attention. The @WHO even declared it a VOC in early may - yet the @CDCgov didn’t act to declare Delta a variant of concern until June 15th! Now we are here… ⬇️
3) I’ve been trying to warn about #DeltaVariant since April (first for India) and May (for UK and other countries), and in early June calling out the early surge in the US. We should have taken urgent precautions when we see this trend already in 20 states…

OMG—A homeopathic doctor was arrested & first person federally charged for fraud for selling fake vaccines & cards—selling “immunization pellets” claiming to provide “lifelong immunity”, & falsely claimed #COVID19 vaccines contained “toxic ingredients”. 🔥

2) Mazi “allegedly defrauded and endangered the public by preying on fears and spreading misinformation about FDA-authorized vaccinations, while also peddling fake treatments that put people’s lives at risk,” Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco said in a statement.
3) Mazi, a resident of Napa, Calif., also allegedly sent several clients vaccine cards that made it look like she had administered Moderna doses to them. Other customers were instructed to fill out their own cards, investigators said.

BREAKING—With #COVID19 cases and hospitalizations surging, Los Angeles will now *require* indoor mask again, **regardless of vaccination status**. @CountyofLA’s mandate is what needs to be done to slow #DeltaVariant—where is our @CDCgov? @CDCDirector—please rules update ASAP. Image
2) Los Angeles County's been posting more than 1,000 new cases a day for nearly a week now.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention considers transmission in LA and in Riverside and San Diego counties as "substantial."

3) Statewide in CA, the average percentage of people testing positive has tripled in a little more than three weeks. And increases are speeding up. In LA County, about 61 % of residents 16 and older are fully vaccinated, but millions more have yet to get jabbed.

CDC says #DeltaVariant surging—now dominant ~58% of #COVID19 cases in US. Two weeks ago—31%. 6 weeks ago? Only 3%. Someone warned in May it would endanger the 🌎. Someone warned it will overtake US. Yet CDC didn’t declare Delta a VOC until June 15th. #DeltaVariant is no joke—🧵
2) Let this sink in - 7 kids in the ICU, 2 of which are on life support In Mississippi. And there are breakthrough hospitalizations and breakthroughs deaths with almost certain #DeltaVariant too.
3) Shielding kids and elderly and immunocompromised and chronic disease patients now critical, regardless of their vaccine status. Great move by @TCBPubHealth.

📍A 24-year-old man refused the vaccine, but then contracted #COVID19 (in Florida), got hospitalized, intubated, on ventilator, got ECMO, and required a double lung transplant… expresses his regret not vaccinating. Don’t let this be you or your family! 🧵

2) “He wanted to wait a few years to see, you know, if there’s any side effects or anything from it,” said Paul Nuclo, his stepfather. “As soon as he got in the hospital, though, he said he wished he had gotten the vaccine.”
3) Once hospitalized, however, he asked to be inoculated. 

“The night before he was intubated, he wanted it,” Nuclo said. “So it was a little bit too late then.”

Bargatze had **no preexisting medical conditions**!
