Should you wear two masks, as Dr. Anthony Fauci has recently recommended?
Not if youre wise, says an infectious disease expert.
Epidemiologist Michael Osterholm, a professor at the University of Minnesota and a Biden transition team advisor, made his
comments both in an interview with WCCO Radio last week and also on Meet the Press on Sunday.
The professor, head of his universitys Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy, €śsaid Faucis recommendation to wear
two masks at once to stop viral infections made no epidemiological sense,€ť The College Fix, writes, reporting on Osterholms
WCCO appearance.

Putting "university" at the beginning of your subject line means nothing.
Osterholm has a PhD in environmental health, and a MPH in epidemiology,
all from the University of Minnesota.
That said, his resume overall is quite impressive.
Experts can legitimately disagree. I wouldn't necessarily take this guy's
expertise over Fauci's.

I saw this guy on Meet the Depressed Sunday. He's been on there many times.
I was surprised how doom and gloom he was this time on what he claims is
coming. He says we are in for a huge surge, the worst is yet to come, due to
the new variants. Seemed to me he was going way out on a limb with that
prediction, especially when the curve is down about 40% from where it was just
a few weeks ago. Seems to me that if we didn't hit epic disaster last month,
there is a decent chance that we have hit the peak and it;s not going to get
worse than that. But we'll see. And dr. O wasn't saying that we might be
headed for the worst part, he said it's a certainty.
