CDC Director Suggests “4 Simple Things” to Fight COVID. Will Dan Forest Take His Advice?

RALEIGH — Yesterday, CDC Director Dr. Robert Redfield, as this story notes, “issued a dire warning: follow recommended coronavirus measures or risk having the worst fall in US public health history.” His advice was simple:

For your country right now and for the war that we’re in against COVID, I’m asking you to do four simple things: wear a mask, social distance, wash your hands and be smart about crowds.

Dr. Redfield added, “I’m not asking some of America to do it. We all gotta do it.”

Will Dan Forest take Dr. Redfield’s advice?
