Dr. Birx says Americans who gathered at Thanksgiving need to assume they’re infected with COVID-19, get tested this week

Dr. Deborah Birx said Americans “may have made mistakes over the Thanksgiving time period,” and urged everyone who attended holiday gatherings last week to assume they are infected with COVID-19 and to get tested this week. Birx, the coordinator of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, made the statements during an appearance on “Face the Nation.”

“We know people may have made mistakes over the Thanksgiving time period,” Birx said on Sunday. “If you’re young and you gathered, you need to be tested about five to 10 days later. But you need to assume that you’re infected and not go near your grandparents and aunts and others without a mask.”

“We are deeply worried about what could happen post-Thanksgiving because the number of cases, 25,000 versus 180,000 a day, that’s where- that’s why we are deeply concerned,” she said.

Birx said despite coronavirus cases and hospitalizations falling in the northern plains states, “we’re worried that all of that will be reversed” because of Thanksgiving gatherings.

  1. “Just get a test. It takes 10 minutes.”

    Just wear a mask. Just take a test. Hey, just get a (untested) vaccine (that CHANGES YOUR RNA). Hey, stop complaining and just give up your cash. Hey, stop grumbling and just download the damn app so we can track you everywhere. Hey, just go to the FEMA camp. Hey, just walk into the furnace, slave.
