Valuetainment - Face Masks - Helpful or Hoax？

00:00:00.000 I'm Patrick, BetDev, your host of Valuetainment.

00:00:24.040 Today we're going to talk about this face mask stuff.

00:00:26.360 Does this stuff work?

00:00:27.400 What are experts saying about it?

00:00:28.800 Is it really helpful or is it just a hoax?

00:00:31.820 Okay, so check this out.

00:00:32.680 This is an LED UV flashlight.

00:00:34.780 We just bought this right here.

00:00:35.720 And I got my two masks right here.

00:00:37.620 I want to show you how many particles and viruses I may potentially have on these masks.

00:00:42.340 Take a look at this.

00:00:42.960 This is a mask I got today at Yard House when I ate over there and I forgot this mask.

00:00:47.920 They gave me this.

00:00:48.660 I don't know if you see it or not.

00:00:49.860 All of those things could be particles, right?

00:00:52.840 All of those.

00:00:53.320 And look at all over the place.

00:00:54.400 This is what's on my face and this is the one I use and wash occasionally.

00:00:58.560 I wash, right?

00:00:59.520 Check this out.

00:01:00.420 You go over here.

00:01:01.340 Okay.

00:01:01.720 It's very obvious.

00:01:03.320 A lot is on it, right?

00:01:05.020 Okay.

00:01:05.780 So why am I showing this to you right now?

00:01:08.260 Here's why.

00:01:09.200 Because we just got a word from Governor Abbott today.

00:01:11.580 I'm in Texas that we are required to wear masks at work.

00:01:14.700 Now it's a requirement that we're supposed to wear masks.

00:01:17.340 Unless certain things, you have a breathing issue or certain conditions that you have, you're

00:01:22.040 required to be wearing a mask, right?

00:01:23.540 Okay.

00:01:24.140 No problem.

00:01:24.740 Now, we'll go ahead and listen and wear the mask.

00:01:26.660 When you're looking at all these masks, people are asking a lot of different questions.

00:01:30.240 And I went out there and researched myself.

00:01:31.780 I got some stuff I want to show you.

00:01:33.400 We will look at how CDC and World Health Organization is telling us how to properly wear a mask.

00:01:40.920 And I want you to tell me yourself while you watch this.

00:01:43.640 When's the last time you wore the mask the way the experts are telling us to wear masks?

00:01:48.300 I even have a video of a doctor showing how to wear a mask.

00:01:52.100 And this poor doctor is looking here first.

00:01:54.820 Then she looks here.

00:01:55.560 Then she looks.

00:01:56.080 You can tell she has all the steps on how to teach us how to wear a mask.

00:01:59.600 And she needs a step-by-step process on how to properly wear the mask. 1.00

00:02:03.380 And then I'll give you some data here.

00:02:05.060 But let's go through this here together.

00:02:06.640 Okay.

00:02:07.280 So first of all, how COVID-19 spreads.

00:02:10.140 Two different ways.

00:02:10.900 One is the fomite transmission, which is what?

00:02:13.060 I'm touching this stuff.

00:02:14.880 Somebody came over here.

00:02:15.980 There's particles, I touch my nose, boom, I got coronavirus, hypothetically.

00:02:20.300 The other one is respiratory particles that reach you directly.

00:02:25.400 This is sneeze, cough, six feet, three to six feet.

00:02:29.320 You cough, I get it, oh my gosh.

00:02:31.280 Then I have it.

00:02:32.140 A couple of days later, I'm having symptoms.

00:02:33.920 I may have coronavirus.

00:02:35.100 No problem.

00:02:35.700 Then they tell us there's three different masks to use, right?

00:02:38.500 The lowest level mask are these.

00:02:40.480 This is the cloth mask.

00:02:41.840 You're seeing a lot of people using bandanas.

00:02:43.360 Those work as well.

00:02:44.160 But that's considered the cloth mask.

00:02:46.260 Then it's these masks, which are the surgical masks.

00:02:48.500 But they're not recommending that we use this because they want to save this for who?

00:02:52.760 Doctors, nurses.

00:02:53.720 And the last one is the N95 mask, which I don't have one here.

00:02:56.940 But this is what it looks like, right?

00:02:58.260 You got a lot of people contacting me saying, Pat, I can get you $100,000.

00:03:01.480 I can get you $5 million.

00:03:02.640 Do you want to buy and sell this to some people?

00:03:05.160 And here's what you got to do.

00:03:06.200 Now, these are the masks that we're looking at.

00:03:08.540 What the CDC is not recommending us to use are these, and they don't want us to use these.

00:03:14.580 They want us to specifically use these.

00:03:16.820 Now, even though they want us to use these, guess what they're saying?

00:03:20.340 They're saying that their nurses and doctors cannot use these because these are not the

00:03:25.740 safest.

00:03:26.460 You and I can use these, but in hospitals, they can't use this.

00:03:29.380 No problem.

00:03:29.980 Let's go through this again, what they say next.

00:03:32.240 So cloth masks is what they've been recommending to use.

00:03:34.560 Cloth face coverings are recommended as a simple barrier to help prevent respiratory droplets

00:03:38.800 from traveling into the air and onto other people through the person wearing the cloth

00:03:42.740 face covering cups.

00:03:44.220 Okay, you get the idea.

00:03:45.320 This is called what?

00:03:46.380 Source control.

00:03:47.700 Surgical masks we already covered.

00:03:49.500 We've already gone through what to do and what not to do.

00:03:51.540 Now, let's go through what CDC is telling us to do when it comes down to recommendation

00:03:57.640 with coverings, right?

00:03:58.920 Here's what they're saying.

00:03:59.660 CDC recommends that people wear cloth face coverings in public settings and when around

00:04:04.580 people who don't live in your household, especially when other social distancing measures are difficult

00:04:09.540 to maintain.

00:04:10.320 Or, cloth face coverings may help prevent people who have COVID-19 from spreading it to other

00:04:16.140 people.

00:04:16.880 Or, coverings are most likely to help reduce of COVID-19 fine.

00:04:20.600 Coverings should not be worn by children under the age of two or anyone who has trouble breathing

00:04:24.720 or is unconscious, incapacitated, or otherwise unable to remove the mask without assistance.

00:04:29.640 Now, watch this, who should wear a cloth face covering? 0.98

00:04:34.560 General public, again, same thing, two years old, COVID-19 spread people on some things.

00:04:39.320 Okay, so all this stuff, pretty much the same thing we're looking at over there, right?

00:04:42.080 No problem.

00:04:42.660 Now, I want to show you what Anthony Fauci, who the other day when Rand Paul called him

00:04:49.580 out and he had his nice, I believe it was a Washington Nationals mask on.

00:04:53.120 He dropped it, he put it back up, he dropped it, put it back up, which means if there are

00:04:58.080 any particles on the table, he dropped and put it back up.

00:05:02.260 This is the man who is the expert, he went like this, and he was about to answer, he went

00:05:07.220 like this, then he went like this, you're not supposed to touch this thing.

00:05:10.980 He not once reached out and said, okay, this is what you're supposed to do, it dropped, if

00:05:16.460 it drops, okay, put another thing here and go back again.

00:05:20.020 Watch this, now, that's Anthony Fauci.

00:05:21.980 Now, here's what Anthony Fauci said on an interview with 60 Minutes, I want to say March 18th

00:05:29.700 or March 8th, take a look at this.

00:05:31.500 Information surrounding face masks, can you discuss that?

00:05:34.120 The mask, there's a lot of confusion among people and misinformation surrounding face masks.

00:05:38.300 Okay.

00:05:38.580 Can you discuss that?

00:05:39.740 The masks are important for someone who's infected to prevent them from infecting someone else.

00:05:44.040 Now, when you see people and look at the films in China or in South Korea, whatever,

00:05:47.400 everyone's wearing a mask, right now in the United States, people should not be walking

00:05:51.160 around with masks.

00:05:52.500 You're sure of it?

00:05:53.060 Because people are listening really closely to this.

00:05:54.680 Right now, people should not be, there's no reason to be wearing a mask.

00:05:57.720 When you're in the middle of an outbreak.

00:05:59.220 Yeah.

00:05:59.720 Wearing a mask might make people feel a little bit better and it might even block a droplet.

00:06:04.240 Yeah.

00:06:04.400 But it's not providing the perfect protection that people think.

00:06:06.620 This is our expert.

00:06:07.560 And often, there are unintended consequences.

00:06:09.980 People keep fiddling with the mask and they keep touching their face.

00:06:11.760 Which is what you did.

00:06:12.360 And can you get some schmutz and sort of staying inside there?

00:06:14.440 Of course, of course.

00:06:15.080 But when you think masks, you should think of healthcare providers needing them and people

00:06:18.220 who are ill.

00:06:18.960 The people who, when you look at the films of foreign countries and you see 85% of the people

00:06:22.180 wearing masks, that's fine.

00:06:23.760 That's fine.

00:06:24.060 I'm not against it.

00:06:24.640 If you want to do it, that's fine.

00:06:25.640 But it can lead to a shortage of masks.

00:06:27.120 Fair enough.

00:06:30.940 So that's Anthony Fauci, our expert, talking about whether masks work or not, do we really

00:06:35.840 need to do it or not.

00:06:36.600 Now watch this.

00:06:37.680 Now here's a video from someone who is with World Health Organization showing us how to

00:06:43.560 properly wear a mask.

00:06:44.980 Now watch this.

00:06:45.660 Before touching the mask, clean your hands with alcohol-based hand rub and people who

00:06:49.480 have symptoms suggested of COVID-19.

00:06:51.320 Here we go.

00:06:52.040 Before touching the mask, clean your hands with alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water.

00:06:57.040 Yeah.

00:06:57.280 20 to 30 seconds rub.

00:07:01.840 Obviously, we all do 20 to 30 seconds.

00:07:04.240 Soap and water, 40 to 60 seconds.

00:07:06.000 I'm sure everybody does that.

00:07:07.880 Holy moly.

00:07:09.820 Yeah.

00:07:10.100 Inspect the mask for tears or holes.

00:07:11.600 Do not use a mask that has previously been worn or is damaged.

00:07:14.140 Yeah.

00:07:14.360 Verify which side is the top.

00:07:15.920 This is usually where the metal strip is.

00:07:17.820 Identify the inside of the mask, which is usually the white side.

00:07:20.540 Yeah.

00:07:20.740 Place the mask on your face, covering your nose, mouth, and chin, making sure there are

00:07:25.400 no gaps between your face and the mask.

00:07:27.360 Pinch the metal strip so that it molds to the shape of your nose.

00:07:30.580 Remember, do not touch the front of the mask while using it to avoid contamination.

00:07:33.880 If you accidentally touch it, clean your hands.

00:07:36.960 Okay.

00:07:37.420 That's one of them, right?

00:07:38.700 That's one of them.

00:07:39.340 Now watch the next one here.

00:07:40.960 So I'm not even...

00:07:41.900 So if I touch it, clean your hands.

00:07:44.540 Now how many of you, when you go to a restaurant or a place of business, how many of you guys have

00:07:49.200 this with you in your pocket all the time?

00:07:50.480 Okay.

00:07:50.740 Now, first of all, let's just assume that's not all the time, but fine.

00:07:53.620 Some of you are saying, I'm doing it all the time.

00:07:55.220 Great.

00:07:55.800 Now here's another one from World Health Organization.

00:07:59.520 This was shot February 5th, by the way.

00:08:01.540 Watch what she says.

00:08:02.960 It's got a couple million views.

00:08:05.260 Medical masks like this one cannot protect against the new coronavirus when used alone.

00:08:09.220 When you wear them...

00:08:10.020 Cannot protect against the new coronavirus...

00:08:12.740 Medical masks like this one cannot protect against the new coronavirus when used alone.

00:08:16.700 When you wear them, you must combine with hand hygiene and other preventive measures.

00:08:20.480 WHO only recommends the use of masks in specific cases.

00:08:24.000 If you have cough, fever, and difficulty breathing, you should wear a mask and seek medical care.

00:08:28.640 Sure.

00:08:29.040 If you do not have these symptoms, you do not have to wear masks because there is no evidence

00:08:33.260 that they protect people who are not sick.

00:08:35.140 However, if you are healthy, but you are taking care of a person who may be infected with the

00:08:40.540 new coronavirus, then you should wear a mask whenever you are in the same room with that

00:08:44.980 person.

00:08:45.680 And remember, if you choose to wear a mask, use it and discard it properly and clean your

00:08:49.600 hands with alcohol hand rub or soap and water.

00:08:51.720 For more information on mask use...

00:08:54.340 Okay.

00:08:55.340 So here is the next one.

00:08:56.340 Watch this.

00:08:57.340 Now here is a lady that does an exercise, which I just showed you here with the LED UV flashlight. 1.00

00:09:00.240 Watch what happens right here when this doctor is showing you how much viruses and particles

00:09:05.040 can be in the equipment you are using.

00:09:06.960 Now watch this here.

00:09:07.960 Powder represents our bacteria, our germs, and viruses.

00:09:11.100 So we can demonstrate how easy it is to spread this, even if we are running into the grocery

00:09:14.740 store with proper PPE and protective equipment and grabbing one item.

00:09:18.360 Okay.

00:09:18.720 I have placed my protective equipment on correctly, and now I am going to run in and buy some water

00:09:22.720 at the grocery store.

00:09:23.760 So here is my water.

00:09:25.800 I am going to take my pen and pay for it.

00:09:27.800 I got my receipt.

00:09:28.580 Yep.

00:09:29.240 This is a great example, by the way.

00:09:31.280 Open this up.

00:09:32.200 Get a drink.

00:09:33.180 I have been shopping.

00:09:33.860 Very helpful.

00:09:36.720 Takes a sip.

00:09:38.180 Puts it back up with your hands, which is what you do.

00:09:41.880 How many times do you see your waiter go like this, holding you down when they're talking

00:09:45.100 to you?

00:09:45.440 So I'm going up to my car, and I am ready to take off my mask and gloves, and I want

00:09:48.140 to show you how important it is that we do this in the right order in the right way.

00:09:54.480 So let's see how I did.

00:09:55.600 I'm going to turn on my black light here.

00:09:57.640 Oh my goodness.

00:09:58.480 So starting off, we knew it was on the one surface.

00:10:00.920 Look at my gloves, my mask.

00:10:02.560 Right here on the outside of my gloves.

00:10:03.460 How are you protected with these masks?

00:10:04.820 Oh my goodness, look at this pen.

00:10:06.220 The poor person who uses this pen after me.

00:10:08.600 Oh, and look at my hands.

00:10:10.840 Oh my goodness.

00:10:11.320 The worst part about this is when I remove my mask, I did not use the proper procedure,

00:10:15.580 which means that that must be on my face.

00:10:17.800 How many people are using the proper procedure, right?

00:10:20.400 COVID-19 spreads, you're getting in your nose and in your mouth, and now this is really

00:10:23.000 close to my nose.

00:10:23.760 Okay, so now watch this.

00:10:25.140 So let me show you the other one.

00:10:26.080 Now here's a doctor showing how to properly use it.

00:10:30.280 Watch where she's looking at the entire time.

00:10:31.820 I'm going to speed it up a little bit and just look at her eyeballs, where she's looking 0.99

00:10:34.800 at the entire time.

00:10:35.680 The mask on the outside is considered dirty.

00:10:38.760 Don't pull your mask below your foot while you're wearing it.

00:10:40.540 So just look here.

00:10:41.700 It should always be sitting properly on your face.

00:10:43.600 Third thing.

00:10:44.080 You don't want to have the mask at the end, so you don't want it sitting like this.

00:10:46.100 Yep.

00:10:46.560 All of these are going to create a lot of tools for cross-contamination of yourself or other

00:10:49.180 services.

00:10:49.460 Script.

00:10:49.780 I want to cover a few simple steps to keep yourself in front of the face while wearing

00:10:52.900 your mask.

00:10:53.580 When you first go ahead and pull out the mask, we want to make sure we identify which side

00:10:55.900 of the mask is the outside of the mask.

00:10:57.040 Because the outside of the mask again is dirty.

00:10:58.220 Sure.

00:10:58.440 Here at the hospital, we're marking the outside of the mask with our initials.

00:11:00.440 When we went home, you may choose to do the same.

00:11:01.980 Or you could put something like a star, some type of mark identifying the outside of

00:11:04.440 your mask.

00:11:04.600 As you can see, it's the same color on both sides.

00:11:06.700 So that's going to identify the outside of our mask.

00:11:08.240 The second thing.

00:11:08.980 Whenever we're taking our mask off, we want to make sure it's put into some clean type of area.

00:11:12.200 Of course we carry a carton with us everywhere we go.

00:11:14.980 Absolutely.

00:11:15.380 I'm sure you do all the time.

00:11:17.880 What we don't want to do is put it in an area that's not clean.

00:11:19.860 An area that's not clean would be something like our purse or our pocket.

00:11:22.100 Yes.

00:11:22.460 So I'm going to go ahead and put my mask on.

00:11:24.420 So to put my mask on, I want to pull it down to make sure it's covering under my chin,

00:11:27.260 make sure it's covering my nose, make sure it's nice and secure.

00:11:29.140 So again, I'm not going to touch the outside.

00:11:30.520 Looked over here, Garen.

00:11:31.460 Okay.

00:11:31.940 I need to now remove my mask for whatever reason.

00:11:33.460 First thing I'm going to do is clean my hands.

00:11:35.220 So I'm not performing hand hygiene.

00:11:36.460 I can do that with soap and water or hand sanitizer.

00:11:38.580 When I remove my mask, I'm going to do that from a clean area.

00:11:40.620 So I'm going to remove my mask from the earloops.

00:11:42.480 Looked again.

00:11:42.720 I'm going to accept this mask to make sure I can reuse it.

00:11:44.160 So has my mask been compromised at all?

00:11:46.560 Is it wet?

00:11:47.000 Is it visibly soiled?

00:11:47.900 If it is, I want to go ahead and I want to throw it away.

00:11:49.840 I'm going to go ahead and perform hand hygiene.

00:11:51.320 Here's the point I'm trying to make you with this case here.

00:11:53.720 Obviously, she's a doctor. 0.78

00:11:55.160 This thing's got 600,000 views.

00:11:56.700 It was uploaded two months ago.

00:11:58.760 It's got 600,000 views.

00:12:00.480 And it's coming from an expert.

00:12:01.680 But even the expert needs cue cards for her to remember what to do next.

00:12:08.280 And you and I are not the experts.

00:12:10.240 And they're telling us to go use something like this.

00:12:12.420 And when you put the LED light on, look at the amount of particles.

00:12:16.280 And worst thing, worst thing that we do.

00:12:18.460 So let's just say you go to the restaurant.

00:12:20.420 Let's just say you're in the market.

00:12:21.880 Let's just say you're doing whatever you're doing.

00:12:23.520 Do you know what's proving that this thing doesn't work?

00:12:26.460 Do you know what proves that this thing doesn't work?

00:12:28.140 Let me give you an example right here.

00:12:29.460 So say I put this on, okay?

00:12:30.940 Here we go.

00:12:31.360 Let me do the responsible thing here.

00:12:33.900 All right.

00:12:34.240 So we got this here.

00:12:35.320 At this point of the game, it's been on the table.

00:12:37.180 God knows what's on the table.

00:12:38.560 We keep this place pretty clean.

00:12:40.540 But I take this.

00:12:42.000 I put it on my face.

00:12:43.160 You ready?

00:12:44.140 All right.

00:12:44.360 Here we go.

00:12:45.500 So, hey, what's going on?

00:12:46.640 Okay, great.

00:12:47.460 What can I get you?

00:12:48.500 I'd like to get a drink.

00:12:49.640 You know what?

00:12:50.360 What is it that you wanted?

00:12:51.560 I can't do that.

00:12:53.420 That's not something you can do.

00:12:54.740 Now, yeah, okay, babe.

00:12:56.580 So, yeah, so how was your day today at work?

00:12:58.860 Okay, it was great.

00:12:59.540 What was it?

00:12:59.860 Yeah, okay.

00:13:00.240 Oh, hang on one second.

00:13:02.480 Oh, it's Dad.

00:13:03.560 Hey, Pop.

00:13:04.100 What's up?

00:13:05.020 Boom.

00:13:05.840 Yeah, okay.

00:13:06.440 Yeah, yeah.

00:13:06.800 We'll see you on Saturday.

00:13:08.020 Yes, sounds good.

00:13:09.020 You want me to pick you up something?

00:13:10.260 No.

00:13:10.720 Great.

00:13:11.620 All right.

00:13:12.100 You ready?

00:13:12.940 Pow.

00:13:13.260 All of this stuff that's on this thing here.

00:13:16.320 Then the phone goes right here.

00:13:17.540 Are you carrying one of these things with you when you go to the restaurant?

00:13:21.420 So then, phone sets.

00:13:23.540 Another call.

00:13:24.560 Hey, bro, what's going on?

00:13:25.640 Dude, are we going to watch the basketball game together?

00:13:27.440 Yeah, bro, absolutely.

00:13:28.380 We'll watch it together on Sunday.

00:13:29.460 Okay, great.

00:13:30.080 Put it down.

00:13:30.800 Third time.

00:13:31.780 Eat the food.

00:13:32.600 Touch everything.

00:13:33.320 Drink.

00:13:33.640 Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba.

00:13:34.180 Ba, ba.

00:13:34.720 Great.

00:13:35.160 Okay, thank you so much.

00:13:36.360 You cut the pen.

00:13:36.920 They bring the pen.

00:13:37.580 You don't know where the pen's been.

00:13:38.720 You sign the pen.

00:13:39.460 You put this on your face.

00:13:40.260 You grab your phone.

00:13:40.800 You leave.

00:13:41.580 What is this protecting right here by doing that?

00:13:45.700 What is this protecting right here?

00:13:47.880 Now, I understand one part about coughing.

00:13:50.360 I understand one part about me giving it to you because of three to six feet social distancing.

00:13:55.300 I'm fully with it.

00:13:56.480 I totally understand.

00:13:57.760 We go by every single guideline that the state tells us.

00:14:00.200 Every time CDC makes some changes, we go ahead and do it ourselves.

00:14:03.360 Right now, great.

00:14:04.360 So the mask thing, I don't know.

00:14:06.360 Fine.

00:14:06.900 Let's say we follow the mask.

00:14:08.100 Let me take it a different level for you.

00:14:10.880 Here's some data.

00:14:11.880 Here's some data for you.

00:14:12.840 Okay, let's look at some data.

00:14:14.780 Let's look at some data.

00:14:15.880 So every news you're listening to, cases are up.

00:14:19.480 We got to be careful.

00:14:20.820 It's the second coming of coronavirus.

00:14:23.140 Look at this.

00:14:23.860 Oh my gosh.

00:14:25.320 Look how high it's going.

00:14:26.720 Look at the numbers.

00:14:28.080 52,609 cases yesterday, right?

00:14:32.120 Cases, cases, cases.

00:14:33.940 It's all cases.

00:14:35.280 But we're not talking about how many people died yesterday.

00:14:38.540 Watch this.

00:14:39.520 It's okay.

00:14:40.860 670 people died.

00:14:41.760 Do you see how this thing's going down?

00:14:43.060 This is positive, right?

00:14:44.240 That this thing's going down.

00:14:45.400 But when you go to cases, this thing's going up.

00:14:48.000 Case is going up.

00:14:49.180 And then you see here, that's going down.

00:14:51.040 Okay, what does this really mean?

00:14:52.600 Let me break down the numbers for you so you know kind of what this really means.

00:14:55.360 Okay, so, so far, if yesterday we had 52,609 cases, okay?

00:15:03.220 670 people died.

00:15:04.920 If we do the math on this, 670 divided by 52,600, that's about 1.2%, which means 1.2% of people

00:15:11.280 that get COVID-19 die.

00:15:13.180 Or is it really the number?

00:15:16.020 Let me go a little bit further for you.

00:15:18.080 Total count is 2.74 million people in America have had a COVID-19 case.

00:15:23.980 130,000 people have died.

00:15:25.640 That's 4.7%.

00:15:27.000 But if you go worldwide, 10.7 million people have had the case, coronavirus.

00:15:32.680 516,000 people have died, which is what?

00:15:34.580 4.8%.

00:15:35.660 If it's 4.7, 4.8, and now it's 1.2, shouldn't we be celebrating?

00:15:40.640 Shouldn't we be saying, good news?

00:15:42.760 Percentages are going low, which means what?

00:15:44.420 It's not as deadly.

00:15:45.720 This is basic math I'm showing you.

00:15:47.700 Now, some people may say, Pat, you're manipulating the numbers.

00:15:51.140 Tell me why.

00:15:51.680 Because the way you need to do it is take the death today, which is 670, and go to the 0.73

00:15:58.420 amount of cases that was two weeks ago.

00:16:00.280 Fine.

00:16:00.740 Let's do that.

00:16:01.900 This is what?

00:16:03.340 670 people died what?

00:16:04.620 As of July 1st, right?

00:16:05.860 Okay, I have 670 here, 670 here.

00:16:07.520 Fine?

00:16:08.140 Okay.

00:16:08.820 So if I go to cases, and it's July 1st, 14 days ago is what?

00:16:14.080 Let's go to, 14 days ago would be what?

00:16:16.640 16th?

00:16:17.560 23,047, which is what I have here.

00:16:19.980 If I take 670 divided by 23,407, it's still 2.9% lower, which means it's still going lower.

00:16:28.080 This is somewhat of a celebration, but that's not how the media is pitching it.

00:16:32.040 So let me even take you to a different level when we're doing basic math.

00:16:34.500 Here's the math.

00:16:35.060 So when you look at these numbers, and they're saying cases are so high, cases are so high,

00:16:41.460 what happened all of a sudden with cases being high?

00:16:43.700 Well, Washington Post does an article on what date?

00:16:48.140 This is Washington Post.

00:16:49.320 Let me find it.

00:16:50.220 Washington Post.

00:16:51.180 I don't know if you see it.

00:16:52.620 WashingtonPost.com, right?

00:16:54.000 Investigations on CDC date June 8th, which is less than four weeks ago.

00:17:00.080 Less than four weeks ago.

00:17:01.340 What do they say here?

00:17:02.940 Investigations.

00:17:03.520 This is not like somebody just wrote this article here, right?

00:17:06.900 CDC wants states to count probable coronavirus cases and deaths, but most aren't doing it.

00:17:16.220 Okay, let me read it one more time.

00:17:17.800 CDC wants states to count probable coronavirus cases.

00:17:21.840 So now, let's find out what CDC defines probable coronavirus cases.

00:17:27.900 So let's go to the CDC website, which is right here.

00:17:32.720 What is a COVID-19 probable case?

00:17:36.180 A person meeting clinical criteria and epidemiologic evidence with no confirmatory laboratory testing

00:17:47.480 performed for COVID-19.

00:17:48.700 Let me read it one more time.

00:17:50.620 So a person who goes and meets with the proper doctor, but there is no confirmation that they

00:17:56.740 took a COVID-19 test that came out positive, none.

00:18:00.660 A person meeting presumptive laboratory evidence and either clinical criteria or evidence, a person

00:18:07.540 meeting vital records criteria with no confirmatory laboratory testing performed for COVID-19.

00:18:12.680 So now, Washington Post.

00:18:14.560 CDC wants states to count probable coronavirus cases, which means how many of these cases that

00:18:20.060 we're getting are probable cases and how many of them are just cases that we have.

00:18:25.020 You know, it's real.

00:18:25.980 I don't know.

00:18:26.600 You probably have it.

00:18:27.600 You know how you go to a doctor.

00:18:28.480 I remember six years ago, I lost my voice for a couple months.

00:18:30.860 I went to the doctor, three doctors.

00:18:32.460 They said, there's a lump here.

00:18:33.680 You probably have cancer.

00:18:34.560 You probably have cancer.

00:18:35.360 You probably have cancer.

00:18:36.180 Three of them said, you probably have cancer.

00:18:37.180 I went to the surgery.

00:18:37.960 They cut.

00:18:38.520 It's benign.

00:18:38.900 You don't have cancer.

00:18:39.960 Probably, probably, probably have cancer. 0.94

00:18:43.100 Cut it. 0.63

00:18:43.520 It's benign.

00:18:44.100 You're good.

00:18:44.820 I left four weeks.

00:18:46.060 I didn't have a voice, but it was probably I had cancer.

00:18:48.760 So you probably have coronavirus.

00:18:50.760 You probably have coronavirus.

00:18:52.060 That's kind of the same thing that we're talking about here.

00:18:54.420 If you look at this data with cases, 52,000 what?

00:18:59.600 609.

00:19:00.240 Here's my question for you.

00:19:01.660 Here's my question for you.

00:19:02.560 Out of the 670 people that died yesterday from coronavirus, God bless their soul.

00:19:10.060 I am sure families devastated with the loss of a loved one.

00:19:13.140 We right now have people in our sales force that have coronavirus that have been hospitalized.

00:19:17.420 And I'm going through it with them on the call to see what they're going through because

00:19:20.480 I want to hear the challenges they're facing.

00:19:22.840 And they've both recovered.

00:19:24.280 We've had many of them that have recovered in the field.

00:19:26.140 And we had a couple of them here that had to recover as well.

00:19:28.960 And they'll be going through it themselves.

00:19:30.660 So I want to know what the symptoms are.

00:19:32.140 I want to know what they're feeling.

00:19:33.120 I want to learn myself.

00:19:34.040 And I want to do whatever I can to protect everybody.

00:19:36.360 But here's a question I got for you.

00:19:38.680 670 people died from coronavirus yesterday.

00:19:41.260 How many people you think died yesterday that we don't know was because of coronavirus?

00:19:46.640 Let me ask the question one more time.

00:19:48.740 How many people do you think died yesterday in America who died from coronavirus, but in

00:19:53.960 the registry, they didn't put coronavirus?

00:19:56.240 What do you think their numbers?

00:19:57.440 Most likely zero.

00:19:58.700 Why?

00:19:58.940 Because when people are dying right now, hospitals are pretty much required to go and find out

00:20:03.200 if this person died from coronavirus or not.

00:20:05.080 If they did, they say cause of death what?

00:20:07.040 Coronavirus.

00:20:07.820 But I got a different question for you.

00:20:09.440 You ready?

00:20:10.600 Out of the 52,609 cases yesterday that got coronavirus, here's my question for you.

00:20:16.420 How many people do you think right now have coronavirus that are sitting there saying,

00:20:22.760 man, I went to CVS.

00:20:25.420 They told me, wait.

00:20:26.940 I'm not going to wait.

00:20:28.220 Forget about it.

00:20:28.980 I'm going to go.

00:20:29.440 I think I got a flu or a cough.

00:20:31.020 It feels like it.

00:20:32.040 I feel like bronchitis maybe.

00:20:34.140 I don't know.

00:20:34.440 It just doesn't feel good.

00:20:35.340 But I'm not going to go to the doctor and I'm not going to get tested.

00:20:37.560 Let me ask the question one more time.

00:20:39.160 How many people do you think, if 52,609 yesterday got a case of coronavirus, how many have it

00:20:45.240 that haven't gotten tested because they just didn't want to go to the doctor?

00:20:48.700 Twice as much?

00:20:49.820 Three times as much?

00:20:51.020 Let's assume you said three times as much.

00:20:53.180 If it's three times as much, that means that 52,609 really was what yesterday?

00:20:59.680 156,000.

00:21:00.480 If it's 156,000, you know what it tells us to our 1.2%?

00:21:05.820 Now 1.2% goes to 0.4%.

00:21:08.060 That means the death rate is really 0.4%, not 1.2%.

00:21:12.240 You know that number, the 2.9%?

00:21:14.360 That 2.9% goes to what?

00:21:16.200 0.9% because it's a third, which means at the beginning when they said this is 3%, 3%

00:21:22.820 of people are dying.

00:21:24.080 Oh my gosh, 5% of people are dying.

00:21:26.700 The math is not probable math that they're doing.

00:21:29.180 So if you look at everything combined together, I am not telling you don't wear masks.

00:21:34.540 I'm wearing masks because I'm following guidelines.

00:21:36.460 At the office, when everybody comes in, we're doing temperature with everybody on their forehead.

00:21:41.360 Nobody comes into the office until they go through the temperature.

00:21:43.620 We're following every single thing that is taking place with the guidelines.

00:21:47.440 But here's what's a deeper concern for me that we're not talking about.

00:21:51.760 The deeper concern for me is the fact that 45 million people lost jobs.

00:21:56.600 Circus All Ages filed bankruptcy.

00:21:58.020 A bunch of businesses that you and I use have to file bankruptcy because they can't sit around

00:22:03.100 hoping they're going to be able to last.

00:22:05.000 Are we doing the right thing right now with so much more fear of round two?

00:22:09.600 So many people that are conventions.

00:22:11.520 I do events every year in Las Vegas.

00:22:13.880 Every single people I talk to in Las Vegas with conventions, hotels, they're struggling.

00:22:17.540 So many hotels.

00:22:18.660 Is it Blackstone that missed the payment on their first hotel business that they bought?

00:22:23.340 They missed the payment.

00:22:24.620 Blackstone missed a...

00:22:25.780 How does Blackstone miss a payment?

00:22:28.760 This is not a small little company we're talking about.

00:22:31.760 It's one of the biggest companies, respected company, missed payment.

00:22:35.980 Check this out.

00:22:37.180 Blackstone skips payment on $274 million hotel loan.

00:22:40.340 What do you mean Blackstone skips payment?

00:22:43.040 Blackstone is supposed to be like Premier.

00:22:45.060 They're skipping a payment?

00:22:46.340 Yes, they're skipping a payment.

00:22:47.520 Why are they skipping a payment?

00:22:48.740 Who the hell is going to a hotel right now?

00:22:50.980 Who's going to a hotel right now?

00:22:52.520 Some of the best restaurants here that we would go to, they're just telling me, Pat, we can't

00:22:55.400 afford it anymore.

00:22:56.500 Here's our high-end restaurant, shutting down.

00:22:58.460 Is that exactly what we want?

00:22:59.840 Is it really what we want?

00:23:00.840 So look, Fauci, if you're going to tell us to wear masks one minute, and a couple months

00:23:06.420 prior to that, you told us masks can't do anything, why are you telling us now?

00:23:10.280 If it's just something to say, it's going to make you feel better, and it's going to

00:23:14.080 make people feel calmer, fine.

00:23:16.000 We're doing it.

00:23:16.960 But I also know a lot of people that are not feeling comfortable wearing these things.

00:23:20.760 I also know a lot of people that are putting this on saying, man, I can't even breathe

00:23:23.320 right now.

00:23:23.600 I'm not feeling comfortable about it.

00:23:25.080 I also know a lot of people that are putting this on, they're getting a lot of anxiety.

00:23:28.160 So what is the solution?

00:23:29.500 I don't know.

00:23:30.240 All I can say is, we need our leadership team to really start considering every single person

00:23:36.300 and look at the data a little bit more, and stop using this data here to manipulate everybody

00:23:41.460 and put fear into us, and start thinking about the small business owners that 59 million Americans

00:23:48.200 work for.

00:23:48.860 These are not billionaires.

00:23:50.460 These are small companies with less than 500 employees that 59% of you, 59 million people

00:23:56.220 in America work for.

00:23:57.560 If those small business owners go out of business, what could come next?

00:24:01.960 Crime?

00:24:03.080 Things that are really, really scary?

00:24:04.720 I mean, you saw the other day when a guy that was marching, protesting across the person's

00:24:07.980 home, you saw the guy that came out with the pink shirt and the gun, the rifle, and you

00:24:11.380 saw the lady who's a lawyer, both of them pistols she's holding, and later on they came and

00:24:14.740 said, we're so sorry.

00:24:15.800 We're Democrats.

00:24:16.400 We're not trying to say anything.

00:24:17.340 Don't take anything away from us.

00:24:18.440 And they kept our law license.

00:24:20.340 What is going on with all this stuff?

00:24:22.940 By the way, this is nothing on how ugly it can get if people are hurt economically.

00:24:28.200 And if you want to find a solution, be imprinting more money, which Nancy Pelosi is saying, let's

00:24:32.300 send $10,000 with families with three kids.

00:24:34.340 I also don't think that's the solution because you're putting us in more debt and the dollar

00:24:39.580 keeps going lower and lower and lower.

00:24:42.940 And guess who's going to have to pay the price for this long term?

00:24:45.100 So again, these are data.

00:24:47.220 These are numbers.

00:24:48.000 I'm simply showing you stuff that I looked at.

00:24:50.260 You're going to have to make up your own mind on what you want to do.

00:24:53.400 But I'm hoping more people will start sharing information like this and start questioning

00:24:57.700 everything, question every politician, every expert, everybody out there because they're

00:25:05.580 making big decisions for you and I to sit there and say, you cannot go to work.

00:25:10.180 Your kids cannot go to school.

00:25:11.680 People got to stay home.

00:25:12.600 And there's so many traumatic things that are happening to the existing generation of

00:25:16.080 the kids that we're not going to see the side effects of it for 10, 20, 30 years from

00:25:19.500 now.

00:25:19.840 But we're going to feel it.

00:25:21.140 Thanks everybody for listening.
