Governor Duchy emphasizes the importance of masks while promoting masklessness Coronavirus

“There are situations where it’s safer not to do that,” Christ said in response to a question about Governor’s work on the White House’s lawn last week. -Waiting for president’s speech.

“But we encourage everyone to wear a mask,” she said.

COVID-19 is not the only one.

Christ on Monday several times said that when the state entered the flu season, the same protocol of cover-up was needed to protect the Arizona people. And last year was the worst season of the flu.

Even the governor asked about his activities and acknowledged the message.

“I want people to wear masks,” he said.

And what about last week?

“People can exercise their right of first amendment, whether it’s a protest or a political event. That’s what I was doing,” Duchy said. Anyway, he said he was “outdoors.”

The governor, however, said he was wearing a mask when he was indoors. This includes grocery stores, businesses, and even “when in the office.”

But at Monday’s event, Duchy was alone, including not only reporters and photographers who did not wear masks, but also health professionals, staff in his office and other state agencies. Even Christ kept his mask on while discussing the coming flu epidemic.

But the governor said it had good reason.

“We’ve heard from the deaf community that we may read lips in addition to our skilled autographers,” Duchy said.

His weekly event is being broadcast on YouTube. And here’s an inset of interpreters translating in real time.

“So, as a courtesy to them, I’m going to take off my mask while I’m answering the question,” he said. And I get out.”

But Christ wore her mask not only during her comments, but also to answer questions.

Duchy himself stated the importance of the mask several times during Monday’s event, revealing plans for this year’s efforts to convince many Arizona people to be vaccinated against the flu.

This includes providing free vaccinations to people who have no insurance or limited coverage. But while Christ itself provides the vaccine for free, people may still face paying healthcare providers some kind of fee to manage it.

We also have plans to extend availability.

“It’s easy. You can even get a flu shot by visiting certain sites for COVID-19 tests as early as next month,” Ducey said.

The state is also trying to provide incentives to over 1.8 million people who are enrolled in the Arizona Healthcare Cost Control System, a state Medicaid program that is vaccinated. This includes a $10 gift card promise.

Given that immunity is not persistent, it has led to the question of whether the vaccination is too early. Christ said it didn’t look like that.

“Our typical flu season lasts from October to March, peaking around February,” she said.

“But, as I always say, the flu is unpredictably unpredictable,” Christ continued.

One of the major concerns of health authorities is having to fight both seasonal flu and the potential second surge in COVID-19 cases. Still, the state continues to allow more companies to reopen, questioning the governor as to whether things will get worse again.

“I don’t know, is that okay?” he said.

“But we’re prepared to have it. That’s why we’re talking about wearing masks and keeping a social distance.”

And the Governor said the state was “gradual” when decisions were made about which companies could reopen under what conditions.

“I don’t know if I know what the future will be,” she said.

But Christ says that the “benchmark” that the state uses to determine risk-infection rates, positive test rates, and hospital visits by people with symptoms like COVID-provides “flexibility.” It was

As of Monday, eight counties were listed as at risk of “moderate” spread, with Greenley county having the least risk.

“So, if the county goes up to a higher level for more than two weeks, we’ll work with those facilities to bring them back to the requirements of a particular benchmark,” she said. A company that has just been allowed to restart.
