OT, commerical fishermen wearing masks
From C-Span, Congressional committee hearing today, 5/11
Commerical fishermen: "With the wind and the noise, these guys are used to relying on sign language and with a mask on they really can't." Huh? They sound like the people least inconvenienced by a mask? She also said that wet masks were dangerous to fishermen. Why would that be? David Kessler, Anthony Fauci, Rochelle Walensky were testifying, but I don't know what committee or who asked those questions. She was civil and and didn't seem at all like an ideologue, but I still don't know why a mask interferes with sign language. No one asked. I found it by going to C-Span video, instead of just audio. No sub-titles or any text on radio. "Dr. Fauci and CDC Director Walensky Testify on Efforts to Combat COVID-19 The Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee held a hearing on the efforts to combat COVID-19. Among those testifying before the committee were Dr. Anthony Fauci and CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky. " The next questioner Roger Marshall (R, Kansas) got combative with Fauci trying to blame him for doing something Marshall thought was wrong. Regarding nih lifts funding pause on gain-of-function research, a common set of google search terms, something I'd never heard of, and haven't read about yet. It might be worth reading about. Fauci ended by saying, roughly, if you're trying to trap me into saying that something someday we do could be used by another country, I'm not going to play that game. That Marshall is a Rep. implies the previous questioner was a Dem, but I still don't understand why a mask interferes with sign language. |

She should have said lip reading instead of sign language. I've tried making signs with my lips but none of them are listed in the ASL directory. |

" I accidentally heard the same hearing again and it was Lisa Murkowski, senator from Alaska, which has a lot of fishing, and I should make clear that I thought the rest of her comments were valuable. |
