'If you don't want to shut down, at least do the fundamental basic things, which are really the flagship of which is wearing a mask,' said Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases

White House communications director says declaration that the pandemic has ended was "poorly worded"White House communications director Alyssa Farah downplayed a press release from the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy released Tuesday that declaredas a key administration accomplishment, saying Wednesday that it was “poorly worded.”

“The intent was to say that it is our goal to end the virus. But what I would say is this: because of the President’s leadership, we are rounding the corner on the virus,” she added.“We're certainly not getting ahead of it, we're still in the midst of the pandemic. We do say we're turning the corner and what we mean by that is, we're rushing therapeutics, we’re in the best place to treat the virus that we've ever been in.

Note 4..literally on the box of masks I have

He is political

Why corona does not pay any attention to Fauci !!🤦‍♀️

Thank you for your service Dr Fauci, sorry you and your family have to endure the stain of trumpism.

Wearing mask is what we have to do till we get a vaccine

You don’t get free passes on flip flops. Science did NOT change in the last 8 months

But he said masks don’t work...

He should have FireFauci a long time ago! The man is wrong way more that he is right his record speaks for itself we need someone who wont be wrong as much as fauci has. He is the most responsible for all the mixed messaging when he changed his mind on mask 3 times 💯

So simple, even a child would understand! What is wrong with these thickish sort? Defies logic!

I don't understand why a lot of Americans are totally against masks to the extent that it's a political statement? In Japan, a person w/ cold wears mask even indoors so as not to infect other members of the family. This has been the practice there-it's called being responsible!

My vote for Biden supports Fauci-

realDonaldTrump Where were the masks when JoeBiden was VP when H1N1 was here? How many were infected then? Why didn’t Fauci promote mask wearing then?

Dr. Fauci has been doing this his entire life and here comes this bankruptcy filing dumbass thinking he knows more than the expert. Its sad and pathetic

IStandWithFauci TrumpIsANationalDisgrace

Singapore has worn masks since mid-April. Here’s the country’s latest COVID-19 data. There is no viable argument against mandating their use the moment that you step outside.

It all goes down to each individual.

🙏🇺🇸 9,207,362 infections & 230,996 deaths. Great record of the Prez.

MIXED IN THE USA AFTER THE ELECTION IS EXPECTED

Dr. Fauci you are good man & a phenomenal human being! Thank you for all you have done and continue to do for our Country served 6 administrations expert infectious disease. Please know Americans appreciate you!!! thankgoodnesssforDrFauci listentoDrFauci BidenHarris2020

How about consider HCQ more seriously?

You told people not to wear mask, you told people there is no infections

Someone should inform Fauci, for the most part - People ARE..... They should be figuring out why nothing they say to do is actually making any difference.🤦 Lock downs did Nothing Distancing failed Masks seem to be a Failure(Only N95 actually protect) *Warm Weather reduced Cases

Honestly...this was a perfect storm. From impeachment to pandemic. Deep state played card to ruin trump. Obama had no adversity like this, he can go fly a kite. For months the media steady bash trump with every word. I cant swallow CNN s bullshit. I thier byass points

Put your Masks on America.Trump is not a Leader.A Real Leader who would never be willing to Sacrifice his own People to Glorify himself as God or Superior.This is a Weakling.Forget about Race and Money.That doesn't make Anyone a Leader.White People are Bigger Slaves than Africans

How about no + and we don’t shut down?

FakeNews miamirally realDonaldTrump Trump2020Landslide

Anthony Fauci! On of The biggest lying frauds in the last fifty years!!!!! Pathetic and horrible person. FireFauci realDonaldTrump

The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing but newspapers This was never about health its about control

I mean like obviously, but we’ve seen the data we know we are 99.9% likely to survive Covid. We’d like to resume normal life

Fauci is a democrat hack... no credibility

Do a “clamp down” in high risk areas. Stay home StopCovid stoptheSpread . Be mindful of maskup PhysicalDistancing Handwashing Stay within your bubble. Take care of yourself. EnoughIsEnough

DON'T TRUST FAUCI ‼️

Don't let the door hit you where you've been talking out of the last 6 months upon your exit!

Fire him!!!

The President just promised to fire Fauci in a second Trump turn. Will the media cover this prominently? Of course not. CBSNews MSNBC NBCNews ABC PBS PhilipRucker agearan

I find it extremely troubling that here we are several months into this thing and we still have to be told to wear masks. What are these people not understanding?

There's not a store open for business that doesn't require a mask and yet the forecasted fall spike came as expected. Quit with the FAKE NEWS... Your going to lose. AGAIN!!!

We all over estimated Americans intelligence

Trump followed the science as advised by Fauci. Fauci is a fraud, providing a 3.1m grant 2 the lab that created the virus. Is he guilty of spreading the virus cause the leftist wanted 2 tank the US economy? Fauci needs 2 STFU about the virusas he's the cause not the sokution

open up but make it clean & full of hand sani

Flip flop

If wearing masks works, why is Fauci only saying now to wear them? If we wore them for the last 20 years, would we have saved millions of lives from people not getting the flu or tuberculosis? Isn't his ONLY job contagious disease? It's because they don't work. We need to breathe

Bad news Faucci

Covid covid Covid nobody cares I had it and I’m fine now you can’t scare us that’s why I now voting for Trump2020Landslide y’all lie too much it’s not working y’all are just exposing you draconian ways

What kind of liar do you hate most? B-liar

I've already ' Voted ' the ' Biden / Harris ' ticket !

We wear seatbelts It is a LAW that everyone must wear a seatbelt when in a moving car that is on any road. Why is it not a LAW that everyone wear a mask when in public? Wearing both saves lives.

A lot of people are wearing masks, yo, and somehow we have seen a rise in cases at the exact same time in 45 states. No why oh why could this all be suddenly growing so much at the exact same time around the world and the US?

We don’t believe any of this shit anymore. Out with the masks. Get out of our lives!

Will never wear a mask

Is it still mask? I thought he flipped already, ole flip floppin fauci still flappin, hows that China money DOC!! 🤐🤐😷😷

Wearing of mask and hand gloves is the best

Oh shut up, Anthony.

Fauci estuvo en contra del uso de la mascarilla en los primeros meses al igual que la OMS.

🖕

MasksDontWork in fact they may be making people sick as fauci himself has said. Do your own research don’t rely on fakenewsCNN

FullOfShit

Where I'm at, people are washing their hands, using sanitizer, wearing masks and social distancing around strangers yet the cases are 'surging'. The cloth masks don't seem to be doing a darn thing (and they say they aren't medical grade on the packaging when you buy).

Enjoy your cold swill! TRUMP HAS JUST TAKEN AWAY THE ' CLEAN WATER ACT' I wonder what will be in your drinking water or bottled Spring water in the coming months? chemical? sewerage? LOOK IT UP!

Pretty sure we know who Fauci is voting for

TonyBobulinski

Why aren't you reporting on the biden Corruption? Fox is kicking your a$$!

Can someone put a mask and a ball gag on this guy?

يعني معلومة العالم يعرف يلبس كمامة أثناء الأماكن المزدحمة معلومة مو جديدة قديمة جدا

ctlss

Did fauci mention the riots?

Then why are 80% of the people catching it describing themselves as always mask wearers? The more you scream more masks the more cases we get. Not 1 study shows masks lowering the spread. Not to mention 99% wear the same one for a month and put it on like there 3. SMH.

Good Morning Mr. President TODAY’S US COVID19 DEATHS is 233,138 You can IGNORE the DAILY Moms, Dads & Kids Body Counts caused by YOUR INCOMPETENCE in directing the world’s most powerful Government’s Crisis Response! Sadly they are gone & can no longer speak out... However WE CAN

The n80, n95 mask is safe where many people gather. If you hold the handle in a crowded area, you should disinfect your hands or wash your hands with soap from time to time. If you touch the mask without washing your hands, it can be contaminated, so be careful.

Not wearing masks for the protection of covid is like these people saying they won’t wear a jacket in the winter... because it’s against their constitutional freedom 😂😂

STOP WEARING MASKS, NOW. NOTICE THE REASON WHY THE VIRUS ISNT GOING AWAY ITS BECAUSE OF THIS. FAUCI IS MAKING YOU SICK AND HE KNOWS HE IS

Tucker Carlson is nailing the Biden corruption. This is the biggest corruption story in election history and the media is hiding it.

Where’s Hunter

They jumped the gun on crossing the red lines with bars and masks etc - code for trumps administration is to blame and we will “ LIBERATE OURSELVES “ next week!

6+ft & mask and avoid large gatherings, especially indoors. We ALL must do the best we can. How many more times will we have to re-learn this simple life saving lesson? The countries that survive this pandemic will be the countries that chose to wear a mask!

It's not almost political, it is political.

Blame fauci for the lack of trust people have with his statements. Flip flop and fearmonger. He is an embarrassment

Put it another way. Soldiers, WW1 and11 and Vietnam sacrificed years away from family and many died to protect. There's also other in Military now that sacrifice time with family to protect. Why then won't people be patriotic and wear a mask?

They are shutting down throughout Europe. They all wear masks.

GOP/GWP doesn't believe in fake doctors. Our President knows everything: hurricane, fire, Covid - you name it! Our president started walking when he was just 1 day old, started grabbing pussy when he was just 1 yr old. There's no one like our supreme President, not even Fauci!

dRUMP 🤡💩 had 2 CHOICES....HE CHOOSE DEATH***😡☠️☠️ FOR HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF AMERICANS!!! BLATANT..PRE-MEDITATED...MURDERER!!! 👺🖕🖕🤡💩💩☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️

Forgive me for fealing this way; calling you a Dumbass is an insult to all dumbasses. I survived 24 years of toxic environments around the world by washing my hands. It's not a secret.

I'll do it for you! -JC

Our president is counterproductive. Pretty much across the board, but yes, especial on this.

Half of Americans: No. Face it Fauci, the US is doomed to a long and painful pandemic.

Here's France's deaths figure. Show us the pandemic? Only in your minds.

Were here for you. If youre going to make it a political statement... then make sure you look stunning doing it. vote and WearAMask and make it ours. please retweet and share. Sharing is caring.

I would believe Dr Fauci any day he is the expert

Such announcements are purely misleading. Why does nobody tell people that they have to change these virus-infested masks regularly?

Then there's this...

Here they are:

Don't want to interrupt your serious news feed here but, have you considered looking into the Biden stuff? I mean, if nothing else it would be a welcome distraction from Fauci 24/7. You guys have got to be tired of this right? Right?

Fauci, you are the one misleading Trump's decision, don't bla bla anymore, what you've done with CCP, you will be calculated!

Now show the video of him saying that masks are pointless and more of a symbolic statement. -JC

This guy DrAnthonyF has lost all credibility, flipping & flopping all over!
