We can't shake hands, go to a restaurant, or to meet friends at the park... but we can go have sex with people we meet on dating apps. Got it, Doc.

Tinder hookups are OK, if you're willing to take the risk.

"Toward the end of the taped segment, Fauci was asked: “If you’re swiping on a dating app like Tinder, or Bumble or Grindr, and you match with someone that you think is hot, and you’re just kind of like, ‘Maybe it’s fine if this one stranger comes over.’ What do you say to that person?”

“You know, that’s tough,” replied the befuddled National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director to the curveball. “Because that’s what’s called relative risk.”

Then he dropped the bombshell. “If you’re willing to take a risk — and you know, everybody has their own tolerance for risks — you could figure out if you want to meet somebody,” said Fauci, who was named a candidate for People magazine’s “Sexiest Man Alive” award.

He added, “If you want to go a little bit more intimate, well, then that’s your choice regarding a risk.”

to tie it in to the other thread.

Ok, got it. Tinder, grinder, peeler whatever OK.

Sitting on a beach chair under an umbrella, not OK.

This is becoming farcical. Hell, might be there already.

Amazing. Almost as if a good chunk of the country has been yelling about this for weeks now.

What a clown. I never trust these people over my own common sense and they can go to hell before I surrender my freedom based on their recommendations

Hookups, abortions, and marijuana are "essential" activities.

More important than outdoor exercise, talking with neighbors, or growing your own food.

At least, according to some.

Fauci is a joke.

Some how we and the media have made this man the most important person in this country. A person that gets to tell our governor what they should be doing and the governors doing just that....

The silliest **** that I've ever seen. To basically let one person to control every choice we get to make. Or be threaten with fines or your liberty being taken away. From the go this should have been about personal choice just as everything we do, up till this point.

Give people the information and if they are OK with the risk...its on them. Just like we do with every decision we make from the time we get up till we go to bed.

I’m getting dating ads for opening this thread.

Did anybody notice the last question of the presser tonight, where a reporter asked Trump about the reports that the virus escaped from a lab in Wuhan? Trump started answering, and Fauci ran up there so fast I thought he would trip over himself getting to the microphone, to state without doubt that the virus is natural.

Of course, that didn't answer the question, lol. I wonder why saying that was so important to him?

don't blame fauci. we should blame ourselves. we have walked right into the tyranny of science, and reflexively believe that anything a scientist says must therefore be scientific.

the politicization of science began nearly 40 years ago, and is now very nearly complete.

I wonder how much Tinder's developers paid him to say that.

Essential activities, the new code for allowed by the state. Damn I hate these little jackboot despots.
