I appreciate you coming on tonight. Thank you, youre, watching the impeachment hearings closely earlier this week and not many people were. You were awarded with some pretty amazing footage that most people missed. It came courtesy of a congressman from the tiny but robust state of Rhode Island. We want to warn you if you take the CDC guidelines seriously or if you are a just a clean person. This will turn your stomach. Let us be very clear what took place on January sixty two thousand and twenty one was an act of domestic terrorism by right wing, single tactic, white supremacists that may have pulled your attention away, but look at him. He sneezed all over his hands. Remember this guy is a member in good standing of the Party of science. So he knows what hes doing because hes a scientist. In fact they understand science
more than anyone else in Congress last year he put on a clinic on proper mask usage watch. He founded Amazon in nineteen. Excuse me im going to remind members of this committee and less you are speaking. Our rules require you to wear a mask. According to the attending physician im speaking about Aanother member of this committee, all remind you, he wipes and sneezes, and there appeared a doctor, Dr Marc Siegel doesnt, do anything like that. Hes, a Fox news, medical contributor, joins us tonight. Thank you so much for coming on. What do you make of the sneeze? Unbelievable? It hypocrisy? You just saw there first ball when you say one thing and you do another thats, the politics of fear. Nobody wants to follow: U Dot S a leader, thats the first thing. Secondly, I believe masks ive usage. If they are used properly with the distancing,
if you are actually to wear them properly, the way physicians do, but the fact of the matter is congressman. Sicily. Money has to learn something for me tonight. Let me tell you about a sneeze. We are always talking about asymptomatic spread, but this, like other respiratory viruses, it spreads by sneezes. Did you know congressman that sneezes travel three thousand two hundred feet per second, it did. You know that is sneeze has been studied and could actually transmit a fire is not three feet, not six feet, but over twenty feet over twenty feet. You know what im going to give you some medical advice tonight, congressman youre, not my patient, but your fellow Brown graduate Heres, my advice. If you sneeze watch this Tucker, if you sneeze into your mask this, is a surgical mask im wearing it properly? If you sneeze, you leave the mask on. While you are sneezing, you dont, take it off and sneeze
onto the side. You leave the mask on now congrgressman youre going to say to me, but the mask is wet. What do I do? The mask is wet from the sneeze heres. What you do congressman you take the mask off for a second you dont yell at Jim Jordan. You take it off. You have a spare mask ready, look, ive got a spare, you take your spare, you take your spare and you put your spare on you, get rid of the old mask and then you wash your hands and you are done. You wash your hands. You are approaching this as a physician with the mind of a clinician, but what, if the point of the mask was to train you to wear a uniform and give him unwarranted moral authority? Think about that great to see you thanks for.
