Birx recommends face shields in addition to masks
Dr. Deborah Birx, the White House coronavirus response coordinator, is recommending the use of face shields along with masks to protect against COVID-19 infection.
Face shields can offer more protection to the wearer than cloth face coverings, which are intended to prevent asymptomatic individuals from spreading coronavirus to others.
"The mask protects others, to block those droplets and block that contamination that happens when you speak or sing or talk, or even breathe," Birx said on "Fox & Friends" Thursday morning.
"The thing about the face shields - we think that could protect the individuals and that it would decrease the ability for them to touch their eyes and spread the virus as well as those droplets coming towards them. So there are two different technologies for two different reasons."

... as long as she's on "FOX and Friends", she should recommend nobody listen to Crooked Donald. Then, maybe she could do some real good.
