This is the Great Shining Moment for epidemiologists, virologists, public health academics, etc. These are very smart, very specialized people in esoteric fields, and now they are getting the full Neil deGrasse Tyson treatment for much longer than 15 minutes. They offer valuable inputs on how life should be lived, but by no means the only guidance. I think there's a name for this phenomena but I forget what it is.

They see things through a narrow lens and when they present their solutions never have to answer the questions, “compared to what?” and “at what cost?”

This screams of someone in a sexless marriage. An Al Bundy one might say.
Looks up wife of Dr. Fauci ...
Yeah, I can see why he'd be an Al Bundy. -

Shaking hands was originally to show someone you were meeting that you were a friend and were not carrying a weapon. If someone doesn't want to shake hands with me, I'm going to just start punching them in the face. Can't be too careful.

Even at that, not all handshakes are friendly....

I wish I were smarter so I could articulate this shit better when I see it, FIRST.
https://www.wsj.com/articles/we-need-politicians-in-a-pandemic-11586710824?mod=hp_opin_pos_1The U.S. economy has been cratered less by the coronavirus than by the response to it—driven by the undemocratic idea that “science” should rule, even when much of the science and the data behind it remain in dispute.
We’re told in this plague year that politicians have no role—in essence, that the people have no real rights against consensus science, which can demand that we forfeit our liberties and suspend the Constitution. Political leaders, elected to exercise judgment on our behalf, must defer to doctors, because the viral threat is addressable only through medical expertise.
Yet since many liken fighting the coronavirus to war, we should remember that in war admirals and generals defer to civilian authority—to the president, as commander in chief, on matters of strategy and to Congress on matters of budget. This is not a design flaw but how a free people governs itself, even in a perilous crisis. It is how we bring the largest possible perspective to decision-making.
The demands of health-care experts are not greater than the demands of the economy, for a very simple reason: The health-care system is not separate from the economy but a crucial part of it. The health-care system saves lives; the economy provides everything we need to live. The damage being done to the economy—if sustained—could easily cost more lives world-wide than the coronavirus. -

This guy makes a good point, but I'm guessing he's not fully following the implications of that poont.

Fauci is paid to give his opinion.GrundleStiltzkin said:
He's given it.
As you've noted, we shouldn't be surprised it's a very narrow, epidemiologically based view.
You take that chinformation and consider it along with a myriad of other factors.
You don't build the entirety of COVID public policy on it. -

If you listen to the fire marshal's fire prevention talk, you'll never want a match or candle in your home. But then you make an assessment of overall risks, brush your teeth, and move the fuck on. -
