No, Fauci did NOT lie about masks

"When polls said only about half of all Americans would take a vaccine, I was saying herd immunity would take 70 to 75 percent ... Then, when newer surveys said 60 percent or more would take it, I thought, "I can nudge this up a bit," so I went to 80, 85. We need to have some humility here .... We really don’t know what the real number is. I think the real range is somewhere between 70 to 90 percent. But, I'm not going to say 90 percent."

Oh, you finally found a little white lie.

Congrats

Fauci trying to get people to vaccinate. People too stupid, too lazy or too pig headed to get the vaccine.

How evil of him.

How truly evil of the man.

Classic.

You are the reason politicians wake up smiling every day.
 
Wrong again.

He said they don't work well to protect the wearer. That remains to be true for the most part. While they DID find later that they work BETTER than originally known for the wearer, but STILL much much worse than protecting OTHERS from the wearer.
Now all you need do is prove to me that cloth and medical masks stop the majority of people from catching Covid through aerosol particles going right through that material. Best reports are that a surgical mask keeps about 40% from going through the material. NO reports on how many particles go through the openings on the sides of one's nose and cheeks or aunt Mollies homemade special knitted ones or those handkerchief robber type masks.

Why is it you folks can never support your positions/ I just don't understand.

I'll wait here.

Intentional ignorance isn't fixed by others. You have to cure yourself.
 
Sometimes after reading these posts I think that there are no positions its more like people just going after each other in some back and forth banter. So I will say that I wear a mask in public or wherever because I have no problem with it. I'm still in the grey about when people started fighting with tooth and nail about whether to support wearing one or support not wearing one. It blows my mind.

Many people had posted a lot of research on the topic confirming that masks work already but you always dismiss it, so no, I don't have to prove it to you. There are literally dozens and dozens of peer-reviewed papers on this and that's why top experts not just in USA but across the world agree on this.

There are not or you would post them.
