A former Food and Drug Administration commissioner has offered advice about the kind of masks that offer the most protection against the Delta variant of Covid-19.
Dr Scott Gottlieb told CBS’s Face The Nation on Sunday that despite the current prevalence of the Delta variant in the US, the “characteristics of the virus haven’t changed”.
“It’s not more airborne and it’s not more likely to be permeable to a mask,” Dr Gottlieb said.
“The first thing I would urge Americans to do is get vaccinated,” he told programme host John Dickerson.

vaccinations and masks. two very simple ways to protect against infection, yet people are still not listening. what will it take? the death of a loved one? your own brush with death?

That's what it's been taking some people is for themselves to get it or someone they know to die from it.

I wish that all: Politicians, Scientists, medical professionals, media and general Opinionists would not forget to include the literal millions who cannot take the antivirus for medical purposes when they assert their opinions, guidance and policy. I know several people who have immune disorders, receiving cancer treatment therapy’s etc. that cannot take the shot.

Doesn't matter to 40% of the USA. Blame Biden when they are the issue. Death is fairly significant, except for in current politics.
