Appearing Monday on MSNBC, network contributor Dr. Vin Gupta suggested that lawmakers should mandate mask usage to combat further spread of Chinese coronavirus, comparing the proposal to the ban on smoking inside public facilities.
MSNBC’s Dr. Vin Gupta: “We should make masks mandatory in public. Just like we ban indoor smoking, because you know what? You shouldn’t have to breathe somebody else’s secondhand smoke. I shouldn’t have to breathe exhaled Covid-19 in somebody’s breath.” pic.twitter.com/9N61Pjf2uw

A partial transcript is as follows:
CRAIG MELVIN: Would requiring masks across the board help? Is that feasible?
DR. VIN GUPTA: I’m going to say this for the benefit of your family — I know you have young kids — for my family, and for all Americans, we should make masks mandatory in public, just like we ban indoor smoking, because you know what? You shouldn’t have to breathe somebody else’s secondhand smoke. I shouldn’t have to breathe exhaled COVID-19 in somebody’s breath. Nobody should. We should institute mandatory masks in public when you can’t guarantee social distancing. That means retail stores, public transportation, workplaces. That’s absolutely where we should be heading.
It makes no sense we’re not already there. People are flouting the rules. A security guard at a retail outlet in Michigan died trying to encourage a customer to wear a mask. They shot him because they didn’t like the way it was trying to be enforced, that policy. We need to not put the onus on security guards at local outlets to enforce this policy or to encourage Americans to abide by it. It’s all in our interests that we wear masks. The evidence is overwhelming. We just need governors to do their job.
Communist scum, taking their only shot at dominated the public mind and spirit.
Good luck, u will only start the rebellion so we should thank you and encourage you and your kinds, gates, Fauci all of them..!
It seems that security guard was one of the first to die in the rebellion that is soon to ensue, everyone should chose accordingly to where they wish to stand.
With your kind or a free humanity…!
DTTNWO
Go back to India (or thereabouts) where you belong! That way, you can help their cops beat up on non-mask wearers! And just where the heck is your mask, hypocrite? Check your freakin’ privilege! Bwahahahahahahah!
These bobble heads are literally some of the most confused people on Earth. They never think before they speak. Everything is based on the moment and never on the past or the future. And it’s all about them and no one else. Their minds are always racing from the moment they get up to the moment they go to bed at night. It’s in their blood. Hence the bobble head.
