On the recordNovember 2, 2023
I don't know that we have time to debate all the science tonight, but a study that says that mask using has no impact, I wouldn't want to go into a surgery ward and find out that the surgeon who was about to perform my operation wasn't wearing a mask. To say that hand washing doesn't matter, I have never seen a physician who doesn't go into the emergency room or a surgical room without washing their hands. Social distancing, this is starting to sound a little bit like crack science to me, not anything very serious, something that you might see on the internet or social media, so I question my colleague's science in this regard. I also just say I oppose this amendment. Mr. Chair, I yield back the balance of my time.
