Is Trump Right That Fauci Discouraged Wearing Masks? Yes—But Early On And Not For Long

announce

the first death in the United States from Covid-19, U.S. Surgeon General Jerome Adams orders Americans to “STOP BUYING MASKS!” in an all-caps message on Twitter, claiming they are “NOT effective in preventing [the] general public from catching coronavirus” and will deplete mask supplies for healthcare providers.

—an interview Trump and his allies cite as an example of when the doctor was wrong—Fauci says"there's no reason to be walking around with a mask,” though adds he’s not “against masks,” but worried about health care providers and sick people “needing them,” and says masks can lead to “unintended consequences” such as people touching their face when they fiddle with their mask.

If we were able to read the ' Danmask study', we would be able to make a more informed choice

Nope, for weeks Fauci said masks don’t work.

better question is , did realDonaldTrump get fleeced by president Xi and take a horrible gamble that has put us where we are now the answer is yes and yes

It took them it took 6 months for them to understand about how it is transmitted and the need for one to wear a mask, my Godnes. By then it had already infected people, so why blaming one person for the deaths all over the world?

No it’s another trumpster lie!

Due to the shortage

Funny because forever MSM said he did not say that. Lol

No one cares now tbh

Yes, we all heard it.

Was he right

So he's telling the truth? Whoa

Except the fact he refused to wear one. You know trump. Debates2020

Stop

Doesn’t sound like he is trying to protect the lack of masks. Even more so, is it ok to lie then?

Fauci and CDC said do not wear a mask a mask wear harm you. Months later wear a mask. But there were no masks. Ppl were making there own mask but no material avail or elastic. Many just couldn’t get them.

He’s technically right but massively taking it out of context. Fauci was trying to make sure critical supplies made it to first responders while production caught up with the new demand.

I specifically remember Fauci saying early on only if you’re sick, wear a mask

Yes after about a month Fauci changed his stance on the subject.

Yet they’re judging how Trump saw the virus early on? When his own national public health advisors were saying stuff like this?! What a joke! If Fauci gets a pass, so does the president.

I agree. Dr. Fauci said this I believe in March, but has since then changed his mind. Fact!

Fauci is the best

Point is, he did! Period! End of discussion MAGA2020

Eshe

Congress should declare a law prohibiting any criticism of St. Fauci, lockdowns be upon him.

How about we move forward? Come together and help everyone

Wasn’t the pandemic and its worst early on?

I like Fauci but he’s is confusing

We should have live fact checks .... It shouldn't be that hard ...

How many times has Fauci, the CDC and the WHO changed their position? About as many times as Biden has denied knowing anything about his son and we now know that was all a lie.

We just don’t want to dye before time .

He lied.

Repeat a lie til it becomes the truth

Forbes is in the tank for Biden

Masks are a political tool.....compliance

Wait, you mean science evolves, and we learn new things quickly? Nah...

Thank you

And only to preserve the inventory of masks for medical people.

$6T in stimulus, business are dying, schools are shut down and government is now more involved in every aspect of our lives. For a virus with a 99.9% survival rate.
